Text-to-Speech Android Apps to read out text of Webpages or PDF

Text-to-Speech allows you to convert your text into speech and read out loudly on your device. You know that i have already discussed about the text-to-speech app in Google Chrome store for Chrome browser. Now, i would like to discuss the same feature for Android OS devices available in Google Play for free. Text-to-Speech apps uses text-to-speech engine installed in your Android device and read out webpages or PDF so that you can give relax to your eyes.

List of Text-to-Speech Android Apps:

1. Announcify: It is the most popular and downloaded app in Google Play. It reads your SMS, PDF, Emails and text of Webpages like Wikipedia, on the speaker or microphone so that you can relax your eyes and mouth. It also works on Text-to-Speech engine of your Android device. If it is not installed in your device, you will have to install it for proper function of this app.

2. Talkadroid Lite: It is a free version of Talkadroid android app. It allows you to send audio mail to your friends, and customize your ringtones and alarms. This free version does not provide feature to read PDF or SMS for you as it has limited feature.

But, Talkadroid app is paid app in Google Play that read aloud PDF, DOCs, webpages, and even translate to and from over 55 languages. And it also includes 3 built-in customizable soundboards for those with speaking difficulties to carry on quick conversations. It will cost you 171 rupees for one time only.

3. Voxdox: It is a free android app that read PDFs and translate PDF in 20 other languages. It not only reads your PDF or Webpages but also supports MS doc files. It is easy to use for android devices as it creates the option below the webpages that can be started at one click.

Voxdox can be used as a document scanner utilizing your device`s camera. Just take a picture of any document in almost any language, translate it to a different language if you wish to do so, and convert it`s text to speech. It also gives you free access to audio materials, text converted to speech, in a wide variety of subjects uploaded by people all over the globe.

4. Easy Text to Speech: It is another free android app for reading Webpages content, PDF and Ebooks stored in your android devices. You have to copy the webpage text or any application database into the screen of this app and then, click to hear the sound on the speaker or microphone. It also provides free clipboard manager database storage. It also provides features such as incoming SMS Text reader and Caller Id Name reader to speech; Share, Copy or type in a web page URL address and be prompted to extract text to speech; Clip Manager, stores clipboard history and Shared data activity, manage clips into groups, templates or easy clip notes. One touch copy or speak aloud clip texts in Sound Board Mode, which may help communication for people who have difficulty speaking.

In order to allow all above apps work properly, you have to install Text-To-Speech Engine, if your device does not support it. Although, some android devices support such feature. But still here is the link- Download TTS so that you can download TTS data for your device.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
