Image-to-Text Scanning and Language Translation Android Application Using Machine Learning and Kotlin

Mobile phones are the most used devices in today’s world. Applications that help us solve real-world problems make our lives easier. With hardware installed within them, they are no longer just transmission devices. Still, they can perform multiple complex tasks such as capturing images through a camera lens, recording high-quality videos, detecting live locations, and much more. Hence, it makes our lives simpler and much easier. Using advanced technology, we can scan text and recognize it. A key point here is that we can translate the extracted text into any language we choose. People from foreign countries find it difficult to communicate in a different to communicate in a different language. Keeping all this in mind, the proposed solution to this is an application that can scan an image, then detect and extract all the text from that image and provide it to the user using ICR technology which is a type of OCR technology and then also convert it into the language of the user’s choice, and this android application is implemented using Kotlin and Java programming language Therefore, proving it effective and useful for the user.
