There is a possible demand of an assistive device for blind and partially blind people which can assist to read any printed text or book without converting the literature into Braille. This is enable access to text and books easier and reduces the cost of conversion of Braille. Our proposed system can read texts to live video taken from ring based hardware. Than our system will process images extracted from video and will Zone based OCR to convert into computer understandable character which would be corrected using Frequent Pattern tree algorithm and would be set to a text to speech software. The proposed hardware can not only have camera but also having buzzer and vibrator to give physical stimuli to blind user.
