I once suggested a similar project at our company. One of our products is labelled in braille. For technical reasons it was the easiest way to drill holes in the front plate and stick a transparent plastic insert through from the back.
My suggestion was to add a few blue LEDs behind it to light up those braille dots. It would have been meaningless for the intended user - but it would have looked way cool!
There’s also no way for someone who needs Braille to actually DO the “puzzle”. The other words don’t have Braille, the map appears to be flat. Terrible design.

I often think of this sign I saw at a small children’s playground with braille on it hung 6 feet in the air with no way to reach it.

Surely they could have made that a little more challenging than having a straight line?
