This is an Android application software. A smart phone fixed on a fixture captures the page of printed text, and sends the audio to the headset of low-vision or visually impaired user. DIGNIFY is an Android Mobile Application that reads the page of a printed book placed on the DIGNIFY hardware platform, converts in to text and speaks it out through headphone. This application does OCR to text and text to voice conversions. It reads out the contents of the entire page (except the pictures). After a page is read, it prompts the user to turn the page, the user turns to the next page, and this application starts reading from the next page. To begin with, it reads any English textbook and reads it out. This will be very useful to visually impaired people to read the normal textbooks without any need to convert them in to braille or audio books.

Supported Languages: English and Hindi
