Proposed Title of the Project:

Abstract:
Blind Reader is a portable, low cost, reading device made for the blind people. The Braille machines are
expensive and as a result are not accessible to many. In particular, there is a need for a portable text reader that is
affordable and readily available to the blind community. Blind Reader overcomes the limitation of conventional
Braille machine by making it affordable for the common masses. This work proposes a smart reader for visually
challenged people using raspberry pi. This work addresses the integration of a complete Text Read-out system
designed for the visually challenged. This will also store the previous data which is read and that can be played
using a button when ever it is required without that book . The system consists of a webcam interfaced with
raspberry pi which accepts a page of printed text. The system uses OCR technology to convert images into text
and reads out the text by using Text-to-Speech conversion. The system supports audio output via Speakers. The
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) package installed in raspberry pi scans it into a digital document which is
then subjected to skew correction, segmentation, before feature extraction to perform classification. Once
classified, the text is readout by a text to speech conversion unit (TTS engine) installed in raspberry pi. The
output is fed to an audio amplifier before it is read oout
Keywords: Raspberry pi, Web Cam, Optical Character Recognition, Text to Speech Engine, switch.
