Text to Speech Converter Using Python

Abstract

In this paper, an innovative, efficient, and cost-effective technique was presented that allows users to hear the content of text images instead of reading them. This type of system helps visually impaired people to interact effectively with computers through a speech interface. Extracting text from color images is a challenging task in computer vision. Text-to-speech conversion is a method that scans and reads aloud English letters and numbers. Reading scientific literature is essential for researchers and clinicians. With the overabundance of medical and dental journals, it is important to develop a method to select and read the correct articles. This article describes the design, implementation, and experimental results of the device.
