This document discusses an OCR-based speech synthesis system developed using LabVIEW 2013. The system has two main parts: optical character recognition and text-to-speech conversion. It uses a digital camera to capture images, performs preprocessing like binarization, then matches characters to a template for recognition. The recognized text is converted to speech using text-to-speech synthesis for audio output. The system achieves 75-80% accuracy but could be improved with support for more fonts and font sizes.

- 2. Introduction • Speech is more efficient and effective mode of communication as compared to text. In this Project work OCR Based Speech Synthesis System has been discussed using LabVIEW 2013. • The OCR application is developed with IMAQ Vision for LabVIEW software- developing tool and it uses a commercial digital camera from any android phone as image acquisition device. • Whole project can be divided into 2 parts: Text to speech conversion Optical character recognition
- 3. Components of OCR System • The identity of each symbol is found by comparing the extracted features with descriptions of the symbol classes obtained through a previous learning phase. • Finally, contextual information is used to reconstruct the words and numbers of the original text. Fig 20. components of OCR system
- 4. System Analysis A OCR based Speech Synthesis System is a computer-based system that should be able to read text and give voice output, when the text is scanned and submitted to an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system. Hardware Required: 1. Camera 2. Laptop 3. Speaker Software Platform: 1. NI Labview 2. NI Vision Assistant
- 5. Image Acquisition • The image has been captured using a digital camera from Redmi Note 3 Android Phone. • The images are transmitted wirelessly to processor using an Android App named “IP Webcam” Using Internet Protocol using the IP address of the streaming inside the app. Fig 21. Block Diagram & Front Panel for Image Acquisition
- 6. Binarization Binarization is the process of converting a grayscale image (0 to 255 pixel values) into binary image (0 to1 pixel values) by a threshold value of 175. the pixels lighter than the threshold are turned to white and the remainder to black pixels. Fig 22. Binarization
- 7. Template Matching In template matching the written words in the image are segmented and then compared against a set of character set file with the extension .abc. This character set file is formed by using NI vision assistant itself. After we got the character by character segmentation we store the character image in a structure. This character as to be identified for the pre- defined character set. Fig 23. Template Matching
- 9. Text to Speech Synthesis • Speech synthesis is the artificial production of human speech. • A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech computer or speech synthesizer. • In text to speech module text recognized by OCR system will be the inputs of speech synthesis system which is to be converted into speech which can be heard using an earphone connected to the laptop or using the built in speakers. • ActiveX is the general name for a set of Microsoft Technologies that allows you to reuse code Constructor Property Node Invoke Node Assemblies are implemented in 3 steps
- 10. Text to Speech Code Text to Speak . The input given to the invoke node “Speak” in the last step is the text that gets converted to speech and is available as output from the speakers of the laptop. Speakers Text to Speech OCRImage Fig 25. Text to Speech Code
- 11. Final Code Fig 26. Final Code Fig 27. Steps inside the Vision Assistant
- 12. Results and Discussions • Experiments Suggest that the system has been able to detect the text with high degree of accuracy (75-80%). However, the efficiency of the systems depends a lot on the size of the font which is under investigation. Fig 28. Front Panel for final code
- 13. Future Prospects OCR base Speech recognition system using LabVIEW is an efficient program giving good results for specific fonts and font sizes, but there is room for improvement. Future Prospects Multi- Lingual Educational Purposes Translator Volume Options Omni-font Font sizes
