We take in an image — maybe from the webcam, use video stream from a phone or a simple photo that is taken and shared to the computer — the testing data. We extract certain features from this and match them against a set of training data. We finally match them and say if there is a match and if there is, say what denomination the input image’s note is of. Finally we output the result in the form of voice. The technique is as follows — We used opencv3 - python3 for programming. For image acquisition we used a scanner and pre-processed it - crop it. This was included in our training set. For the testing set we captured photos from a phone and used it[1]. Next up was to detect th
