Abstract

According to statistics, only 20% of Indian population can understand English; others generally communicate and understand their regional languages only. Therefore, there is a need to demonstrate multilingual unique secure language translator in a country like India. In this paper, hardware implementation of a system is shown that converts English input into Hindi or Punjabi. It is implemented on Arduino UNO Atmega232 microcontroller. The experimental results have shown that this model occupies minimum memory and power to which system it will be attached. Moreover, the system is economical and robust.
