Four options can be used in this Braille cell template to produce a cell, and all are case-insensitive (A=a). {{braille cell|1234|1423|⠏|U+280F|u+280f}} → ⠏ ⠏ ⠏ ⠏ ⠏ Note that this cell definition is unrelated to any language (no "A" assigned). A braille cell is defined by naming the raised dots. In 6-dot notation there are 64 ...
The Unicode block Braille Patterns (U+2800..U+28FF) contains all 256 possible patterns of an 8-dot braille cell, thereby including the complete 6-dot cell range. [3] In Unicode, a braille cell does not have a letter or meaning defined. For example, Unicode does not define U+2817 ⠗ BRAILLE PATTERN DOTS-1235 to be "R".

The Gardner–Salinas braille codes are a proposed method of encoding mathematical and scientific notation linearly using braille cells for tactile reading by the visually impaired. The most common form of Gardner–Salinas braille is the 8-cell variety, commonly called GS8. There is also a corresponding 6-cell form called GS6. [1]
The Braille pattern dots-156 ( ⠱) is a 6-dot braille cell with the upper left, and middle and bottom right dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with the upper left, and upper-middle and lower-middle right dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+2831, and in Braille ASCII with a colon: ":".
In all braille systems, the braille pattern dots-0 is used to represent a space or the lack of content. [1] In particular some fonts display the character as a fixed-width blank. However, the Unicode standard explicitly states that it does not act as a space, [2] a statement added in response to a comment that it should be treated as a space. [3]
The Braille pattern dots-345 ( ⠜) is a 6-dot braille cell with the top and middle right and bottom left dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with the top and upper-middle right, and lower-middle left dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+281c, and in Braille ASCII with the greater-than sign: >.
The Braille pattern dots-16 ( ⠡) is a 6-dot braille cell with the top left and bottom right dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with the top left and lower-middle right dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+2821, and in Braille ASCII with the asterisk: *.
