IRJET - Optical Character Recognition and Translation

This document discusses the development of a mobile application to perform optical character recognition (OCR) on images, translate the extracted text to a preferred language, and convert the translated text to a PDF file. The application is trained on multiple input images to improve text recognition accuracy. It uses the Tesseract OCR engine along with preprocessing and machine learning techniques. The extracted text can be translated and saved as a PDF for future use, helping reduce language barriers and assist those with poor eyesight. Future work may include adding more language support and text-to-speech capabilities.
