MINI PROJECT – TEXT TO SPEECH CONVERSION

AIM:
To implement text-to-speech (TTS) conversion in an Android application, using java in Android studio
Text To Speech API.

STEPS:
Step 1: Create a New Project

Step 2: Working with activity_main.xml file

Go to the app -> res -> layout -> activity_main.xml section and set the layout for the app. In this file
add an Edit Text to input the text from the user, a Button, so whenever the user clicks on the Button
then it’s converted to speech and a Text View to display.

Step 3: Working with MainActivity.java file

Go to the app -> java -> com.example.GFG (Package Name) -> MainActivity.java section. Now join the
Button and Edit text to Java code and comments are added inside code to understand the code
easily.

PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Overview:

You are tasked with developing an Android application that converts text input into speech
output. The application should utilize the Text-to-Speech (TTS) functionality available in
Android devices to provide a seamless and intuitive user experience.
Features to Implement:

Text Input: The application should allow users to input text through a user interface
component, such as an EditText view.
Text-to-Speech Conversion: Upon user input, the application should convert the entered
text into speech using the Text-to-Speech engine available on the device.

Playback Controls: Users should have basic playback controls, such as play, pause, stop, and
adjust volume, to control the speech output.
Language Support: The application should support multiple languages for text-to-speech
conversion. Users should be able to select the desired language from a list of available
options.
Pitch and Speed Adjustment: Provide options for users to adjust the pitch and speed of the
speech output according to their preferences.

Error Handling: Implement robust error handling to manage scenarios such as initialization
failures, unsupported languages, or errors during speech playback.

Accessibility: Ensure that the application adheres to accessibility standards, making it usable
by individuals with disabilities, including support for screen readers and alternative input
methods.
Additional Requirements:

User Interface Design: Design a user-friendly interface that facilitates easy text input and
provides intuitive playback controls.

Performance Optimization: Optimize the application's performance to ensure smooth text-


to-speech conversion and playback, even on low-end devices.

Testing and Debugging: Thoroughly test the application on various Android devices and
screen sizes to identify and resolve any issues. Implement logging and debugging tools to
facilitate troubleshooting during development.
Documentation: Provide clear documentation, including user guides and code comments, to
assist users and developers in understanding the application's functionality and
implementation details.

IMPLEMENTATION:
MAIN XML CODE:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:orientation="vertical"

android:layout_margin="30dp"

tools:context=".MainActivity">
<!--To add text in the app-->

<EditText

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/Text"

android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"

android:hint="Enter Any Sentence"


android:gravity="center"

android:textSize="16dp"/>

<!--when you press this button it will


convert text into speech-->

<Button

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:id="@+id/btnText"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:text="Click Here"

android:layout_gravity="center"/>

<!--To display the name of GeeksForGeeks -->

<TextView

android:id="@+id/textView"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginTop="70dp"

android:gravity="center_horizontal"

android:text="GEEKSFORGEEKS"
android:textColor="@android:color/holo_green_dark"

android:textSize="36sp" />
</LinearLayout>

JAVA CODE:
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

import java.util.Locale;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

EditText Text;

Button btnText;

TextToSpeech textToSpeech;
@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Text = findViewById(R.id.Text);
btnText = findViewById(R.id.btnText);

// create an object textToSpeech and adding features into it

textToSpeech = new TextToSpeech(getApplicationContext(), new


TextToSpeech.OnInitListener() {

@Override

public void onInit(int i) {


// if No error is found then only it will run
if(i!=TextToSpeech.ERROR){

// To Choose language of speech


textToSpeech.setLanguage(Locale.UK);

});

// Adding OnClickListener

btnText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override

public void onClick(View view) {

textToSpeech.speak(Text.getText().toString(),TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH,null);

}
});

}
}
OUTPUT:

RESULT:
Hence an application with text to speech conversion executed successfully.
