Digital talking book player for the visually
impaired using FPGAs.
In: 2011 International Conference on Reconfigurable Computing and FPGAs, 30 Nov-2 Dec 2011, Cancun, Mexico.
The Digital Talking Book (DTB) player is a
device for the visually impaired to read, search, navigate
and bookmark written material using DAISY and EPUB
standards. This paper presents the design and
implementation of a DTB player in an FPGA-based
embedded system to play audio books containing MP3
(Daisy) files and utilize Text to Speech Synthesis (TTS) for
text only books or EPUB books.
