Abstract

This paper introduces a versatile system for real-time multilingual text translation from captured images, enhancing communication across language barriers. Users utilize a user-friendly frontend to capture images containing text, initiating a process that involves Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for text extraction. The extracted text undergoes translation in the backend, producing translated content in the user’s preferred native language. A distinctive feature of the system is the generation of QR codes, encapsulating the translated text and relevant metadata. These QR codes are stored in the backend, ensuring organized and accessible content. In the future, a dedicated feature will enable users to scan stored QR codes, swiftly retrieving the translated text in their native language.

Keywords: Text Extraction, OCR, tesseract, image processing, QR Code, translator
