Deep Learning Based Real Time Devanagari Character Recognition

The revolutionization of the technology behind optical character recognition (OCR) has helped it to become one of those technologies that have found plenty of uses in the entire industrial space. Today, the OCR is available for several languages and have the capability to recognize the characters in real time, but there are some languages for which this technology has not developed much. All these advancements have been possible because of the introduction of concepts like artificial intelligence and deep learning. Deep Neural Networks have proven to be the best choice when it comes to a task involving recognition. There are many algorithms and models that can be used for this purpose. This project tries to implement and optimize a deep learning-based model which will be able to recognize Devanagari script’s characters in real time by analyzing the hand movements
