Recognizing text is one of the most challenging problems in computer vision. To put it simply, handwritten character recognition is the process of recognising text in photographs, papers, and other media and converting it into a form that a computer can read. You can solve this issue by employing the image classification method. We will be able to recognise the user’s typed Tamil characters in this paper. We designed a brand new model, MVGG16, to handle character recognition and classification. Its basic structure is analogous to that of VGG16, but we added a few more layers to improve accuracy. So far, 156 Tamil characters have been learnt, with 350 images each class. In experimental settings, this model achieves an accuracy of 91.8%. As an input method, this work makes use of a whiteboard where the user can scribble the Tamil character to be recognised. The character will be sent for verification after the user has written it and the image has been exported. Once the model identifies the character, it will show it to the user.
