The system is a finetuned version of Optical Character Recognition system. The requirements are a personal computer and a scanner. The scanner reads the script, software processes the data into a voice which speaks the same language as that of the script. The software is expected to cost around Rs10,000. This will help the people with no eyesight for reading/studying books. (um)(psr)
