Extraction of Image Areas from Print Books and Generation of a 3D Model for the Visually Impaired
نویسندگان
چکیده
Currently, it is difficult to translate various types of image contained in print books into Braille. Furthermore, ones that have been expressed in Braille are not easily recognized by the visually impaired. The objective of this study is to develop a 3D model using a 3D printer to convert images in print books into three dimensions. Text and graphic areas in print books are isolated to extract image areas, which are then simplified using outlines to create a 3D model that can be recognized by the visually impaired. Keywords—Generate Mesh; 3D printer ;
