# Braille animated icon

A braille display refreshes two cells of raised dots. Light: a reading wave runs left to right, column by column: each raised dot pushes up (swells) and drops back into place with a hit and a small rebound. Strong: each dot pushes up higher, drops back, then pops a second, smaller time before it settles. Every dot ends exactly where it started.
