Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⡧ has the Unicode code point U+2867. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+2867 to binary:
00101000 01100111. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100010 10100001 10100111

Description
The Unicode character U+2867, known as Braille Pattern Dots-12367, serves a critical role in the representation of tactile information for visually impaired individuals. It forms part of the braille system, which is an essential tool for communication and literacy in the blind community. This character specifically represents the combination of dots 1-2-3 in the top row and 6-7 in the bottom row within a six-dot braille cell. Braille Pattern Dots-12367 can be found in digital text, where it is used to transcribe words and phrases into tactile symbols that can be interpreted by touch using braille readers or tactile devices. By offering an accessible means of reading and writing, U+2867 contributes to the cultural, linguistic, and technical contexts surrounding accessibility and inclusivity in written communication.
