Abstract

This is an avant-garde e commerce-controlled audio platform project specifically designed for visually impaired persons. The platform uses the Django web framework to add text to speech and speech recognition support, which allows a user to browse through the store, search for products, and complete purchases via voice commands. In the system, the user speech translated into text by Google Web Speech API. Voice input is in turn processed with speech recognition. We further enrich usability with gTTS real-time audio feedback which supports simple voice command in user engagement like saying “add to cart” or “go to checkout”. An intuitive site offers a backend powered by Django for safe management of user information, orders and product inventories. This approach prioritizes accessibility while providing voice-enabled form interactions, making shopping convenient and fast for visually impaired individuals. By combining voice command with traditional e-commerce components, this project both elevates standards for the online purchasing experience and inspires diversity in digital forms.
