Reading is a fundamental part of our lives. Information and text is present everywhere in magazines, in newspapers, in receipts, in letters, bank documents etc. But text present on medicine and its cover is something which is important and needs to be crosschecked every time we buy it. While buying medicines, people tend to make sure that they are buying a correct one by cross checking the medicine name, expiry date, manufacturing date and the MRP so that they do not get fooled. It is one of the easiest tasks to perform for normal people as they can read. But what about the people with visual impairment? How will they be able to get their medicine details? The proposed application tries to imitate this job for them and helps them better understand their medicines. The application scans the medicine content side and uses the advanced technologies like Tesseract optical character recognition (OCR), Computer Vision, Text to Speech technology to extract the required information and makes it available to the user in the form of audio. The application helps visually impaired people to independently carry out this task without the hindrance of a third person
