The main aim of this system is to create an automatic text-reading assistant using the hardware capabilities of a mobile phone associated with innovative algorithms. The Android platform was chosen for people who already have a mobile phone and do not need to buy new hardware. Four key technologies are required: camera capture, text detection, speech synthesis, and voice detection. Moreover, a voice recognition subsystem has been created that meets the needs of blind users, allowing them to effectively control the application by voice. It requires three key technologies: voice capture over the embedded microphone, speech-to-text, and user request interpretation. As a result, the application for an Android platform was developed based on these technologies.81-88enOCRTTSspeech synthesisvoice detectionArticle© Національний університет “Львівська політехніка”, 2023© Chypak Y., Morozov Y., 20238doi.org/10.23939/acps2023.02.081Chypak Y.
