Este sistema mecatrónico utiliza una cámara Raspberry Pi V3 montada en unas gafas para capturar imágenes de textos impresos. Las imágenes se procesan mediante el reconocimiento óptico de caracteres, y el texto extraído se convierte a audio mediante un sintetizador de texto a voz, lo que permite al usuario acceder al contenido visual de manera auditiva. El dispositivo se basa en un microcontrolador Raspberry Pi 3 modelo B+ para la gestión de datos y el control de los componentes electrónicos. Está diseñado para ser portátil, ergonómico y de bajo consumo energético, con una batería de larga duración.Universidad de Lima2025-06-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/760710.26439/ing.ind2025.n48.7607Ingeniería Industrial; No. 48 (2025); 241-261Ingeniería Industrial; Núm. 48 (2025); 241-2612523-63261025-992910.26439/ing.ind2025.n48reponame:Revistas - Universidad de Limainstname:Universidad de Limainstacron:ULIMAspahttps://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/7607/7756https://revistas.ulima.edu.pe/index.php/Ingenieria_industrial/article/view/7607/7771info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/76072025-06-11T21:58:52Z
