Our goal is to convert a given text image into a string of text, saving it to a file and to hear what is written in the image through audio.
For this, we need to import some Libraries
- Pytesseract(Python-tesseract) : It is an optical character recognition (OCR) tool for python sponsored by google.
- pyttsx3 : It is an offline cross-platform Text-to-Speech library
- Python Imaging Library (PIL) : It adds image processing capabilities to your Python interpreter
- Googletrans : It is a free python library that implements the Google Translate API.
Examples:
Input : We Have an image with some text
Output: THE TEXT FROM THE IMAGE IS EXTRACTED AND A VOICE WILL SPEAK THE TEXT
This is the first line of
this text example.
This is the second line
of the same text.

NOTE : We can convert the text into any desired language. For Example Japanese, Russian, Hindi. But the only condition is that the googletrans should recognize the destination language. Also, pyttsx3 will speak only the languages which are recognized by it.
