The Phone Reader project, supervised by Mr. James Connan, develops an innovative application that converts images to text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and reads the text aloud using Text-To-Speech (TTS) technology. It aims to empower users such as the blind, illiterate individuals, and those dealing with foreign languages. The software features a gray-scale image capture, serving on a mobile device, and includes rigorous testing phases for functionality and usability, ensuring ease of use and effective performance through participant feedback.
