Dear Jagdish,

Many thanks for the very cool idea and all the work you have laready put
in it.

I am not a hardware expert so the only question I might have a response
to is the second.

I see too approaches.

1. Either you design a protocol suited for your device. That gives you
more flexibility but at the cost of writing a dedicated BRLTTY driver
that understands the protocol (not necessarily hard).

2. You have your hardware simulate an already supported one and thus
benefit from its already implemented driver. Theonly thing you'll have
to do is to find a protocol that is expressive enough for yoru needs.

Best wishes of success,

Sébastien.
