text-to-speech

This project is a real-time voice translator web application built with Streamlit. It captures live speech input via microphone, recognizes the spoken text using speech recognition, translates it to a selected target language via machine translation, and plays back the translated audio using text-to-speech synthesis. The app supports multiple languages, provides start/stop controls for continuous conversation flows, displays original and translated text, allows editing of transcriptions, and enables exporting of recordings and analysis. It aims to facilitate accessible, multilingual communication and contribute to language corpora for research purposes.
