Producing scores for visually impaired and blind people

Hello folks,

I’ve thought of a possibility which surely others have already considered, and 
I’m not sure whether the idea makes sense at all.

This would consist in printing LilyPond scores in 3D on thin plates, analog to 
was was done at the time when engravers built scores with pieces of metal. 

Maybe with a large enough scaling factor, such ‘printbossing’ would be readable 
by trained braille readers with their fingers, benefitting from the non-linear 
nature of graphical scores and the high quality of Lily’s scores. Such plates 
could also be piled up without the risk of damaging the contents, which may 
occur with embossed paper.

What do you think? Please excuse me if my question is silly...

JM
