Contribution

Introduction of a compact, uniform 17-segment display architecture for all scheduled Indian language numerals, improving upon previous 16-segment designs.

Findings

Design successfully displays all 22 scheduled language numerals.

Enhanced accuracy over existing 16-segment displays.

Simplifies multilingual numeral representation in digital devices.

Abstract

India is country of several hundred different languages. Though twenty two languages have only been devised as scheduled to the Eighth Schedule of Indian Constitution in 2007. But as there is yet no proposed compact display architecture to display all the scheduled language numerals at a time, this paper proposes a uniform display architecture to display all twenty two different language digits with higher accuracy and simplicity by using a 17-segment display, which is an improvement over the 16-segment display.
