OCR for Medical Data Processing

Abstract

The mechanism which implement in this device is to help visual impairment people and also to modify the hardcopy hospital data into softcopy. The modified softcopy file will be stored as a backup in the drop box. In this project, a device which developed by a web is converts an image text to speech. The basic structure of the system is to capture an image, extract only the interest region (i.e. The image region which has text) and converts that text speech. The device is implemented with the help of system and a web camera. It locates the parts of images which contains the text and eliminate the background by various image pre-processing from the captured image. Two tools are required to convert the captured image (which contains text only).
