A handheld Braille converting device includes a Braille display unit, an image capturing element, a character recognition element, a Braille converting element, and a display control element to complete the process from the reading of the characters to the output of the Braille by itself. Also, the device has a size capable of being held by a single hand. The Braille display unit includes multiple single Braille display units each corresponding to one Braille character and each single Braille display unit includes multiple movable members. The display control element displays whether or not the relative position of the handheld Braille converting device is correct with respect to a character or character string existing in the captured image, by operating members included in a part of the single Braille display units. The display control element also displays Braille by operating members included in the other single Braille display units.
