Answer
Charles Barbier's system, a military code for night communication, inspired Louis Braille's system. Barbier's code used raised dots arranged in a 6x6 grid, but it was complex and difficult to read quickly. Braille simplified the system by reducing the grid to 3x2 cells and assigning each cell a specific letter or number.
