Abstract: In our day to day life the people are facing many problems in understand the languages. For example, if the people move from one state to the other they don’t understand their language at that time this Mobile Application will help them. Existing system, having a separate application for each and every process like camera, Google translator and Optical Character Recognition(OCR) text scanner. But, people expect the application consists of all the three facilities together. So this proposed application provides a new idea to the people to translate the other language text into their known language. This application contains three steps. 1.Take a photo image of the unknown language text which you want to translate(either handwritten or printed material), 2.Tessaract is an open source Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, which is used to extract the text from the image then Google API and Bing API is used for translation of language. 3.The translated text is generated in PDF format.
