Abstract
People with impairments struggle harder in both daily life and academic settings. Students who are physically or visually challenged find it challenging to navigate an increasingly complicated world. Understanding the requirements of students with disabilities and the ways in which technology might be used to assist them is crucial. They can overcome obstacles and achieve better outcomes in both education and daily life with the aid of assistive technologies, which comprise both software and hardware. In this paper, a solution for physically disabled persons, a voice-activated plotter, which recognizes the speech and writes down the spoken content on the paper at a speed closer to average human writing speed is developed. This work on a speed of 10 WPM, which is closer to the Average human speed i.e. 13 WPM is archived.
