U+A7BD was added in Unicode version 12.0 in 2019. It belongs to the block U+A720 to U+A7FF Latin Extended-D in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Lowercase Letter and is mainly used in the Latin script. Its uppercase variant is Glyph for U+A7BC Latin Capital Letter Glottal I and its titlecase variant is Glyph for U+A7BC Latin Capital Letter Glottal I. The character is also known as egyptological yod.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written from left to right. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+A7BD forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

As used for Egyptology, transliteration of Ancient Egyptian is the process of converting (or mapping) texts written as Egyptian language symbols to alphabetic symbols representing uniliteral hieroglyphs or their hieratic and demotic counterparts. This process facilitates the publication of texts where the inclusion of photographs or drawings of an actual Egyptian document is impractical.

Transliteration is not the same as transcription. Transliteration is the representation of written symbols in a consistent way in a different writing system, while transcription indicates the pronunciation of a text. For the case of Ancient Egyptian, precise details of the phonology are not known completely. Transcription systems for Ancient Egyptian do exist, but they rely on linguistic reconstruction (depending on evidence from the Coptic language and other details) and are thus theoretical in nature. Egyptologists rely on transliteration in scientific publications.
