Abstract
In India, most of the people use a pen & paper for filling various application forms. Also, they are not comfortable with the English language. This project aims to automatically convert applications written in Hindi to English and therefore assists mainly the rural people who have the inhibition of first filling a form and that too in English. Technology may be all around us, but people are still congenial with the pen and paper. So, this project is based on the recognition of different handwritten characters written in Hindi language and converting them to English. It tries to develop a word recognition system to separate several Hindi words from handwritten forms using image segmentation techniques. Nowadays, all form reading processes are done digitally. This system will facilitate such processes in banking, agriculture, education, etc.
