Braille to Speech Conversion using seam carving algorithm

Abstract

The Braille is a form of written language for visually impaired people for writing and reading. Visual people not able to
understand Braille hence to bridge the communication gap between visual and visually impaired people introducing a system Braille to
speech conversion in this away blind people can improve their knowledge by communicating with outside world. In the proposed first
the scanned Braille image is pre processed seam carving algorithm used for line segmentation and converted in to text using look table
concept each alphabet is placed on different position based on their position in Braille cell and in the next step the extracted English
text is converted in to speech by using speech synthesis.
