Abstract

Charity is one of the noblest humanitarian services that a person can render. We are all familiar with people asking for charitable donations. We are also familiar with boxes, placed at strategic locations, in shops and malls, with quotes written on them saying “please help the poor”. But usually, the boxes are unnoticed by many people. This paper reviews the design of an intelligent donation box, capacitated to request for charity. This scheme is anticipated to be even more effective than merely placing a donation box in a conspicuous location or a human directly asking for charity. The voice-empowered box speaks out when it detects an obstacle. When a person approaches or passes by the front of the box within a range of 90 cm, it outputs a verbal request., simulating a human voice., in six languages: English., Hindi., Telugu., Malayalam., Tamil., and Kannada. The existing technique of integrating object detection and voice synthesis is not yet implemented in the form of a donation box for charity., which is discussed in this research work. Empirical results validate the efficacy., speed., and reliability of the donation box that can be used to raise funds for the welfare of the needy.
