Abstract

Many visually impaired people face problems in their life while using apps of the phone for contacting people through calls or emails due to which it is very difficult for them to survive at any workplace and become jobless. So, we are building a voice-based email application for visually challenged people to complete their day-to-day activities quickly and efficiently. It will be fully based on voice command; it will just prompt the blind people for doing different activities then the blind user just has to say a command prompted by the application. Here we are using Google Text to Speech for converting text written in an email to voice and Speech to text library for analyzing and converting it into a body of the email. The use of the keyboard is removed, and the user just must interact with it through voice for doing their work. All the actions will solely depend on voice input given by the user. The main objective of building these applications is to make visually impaired people independent and work efficiently at their work to send, read emails without taking the help of a second person. There will be 4 features in this application: Send Email, Check Inbox, Download an Attachment of a mail, search a mail for which the user gets prompted and he must choose one option at a time. We are adding 2 more features of downloading an attachment from a specified sender and searching mail related to a specified user.
