Morse Code to English
English to Morse Code

Inspiration

A lack of web apps that have a wide variety of ways to translate Morse Code to and from English. We wanted to create an application that provides the widest possible array of translation methods in order to streamline translation, and potentially help people learn how to use Morse Code

What it does

Provides a large number of ways to translate Morse Code. These include:

**Taking Morse Code to translate to English input via text, audio, .txt files, and tapping

** Output English translations via text, audio, or a .txt file

**Taking in English to translate to Morse Code input via text, speech, and .txt files

**Output Morse Code translations via text, audio, vibrations (mobile only), and .txt files

How we built it

We built this on a React Framework, and hosted with Firebase

Challenges we ran into

The fact the Morse Code has variable lengths for different characters led to some translation difficulties. Additionally, getting some of the translation modules to mesh together led to some difficulties.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Building a super clean UI and finishing all of the translation features we set out to accomplish. Additionally, the demo video provides Oscar worthy entertainment.

What we learned

We greatly increased our skill with React, website hosting, and many js modules

What's next for Morssey

We want to use Google Cloud's translation API's in order to increase TTS and STT, and add the ability to translate to and from languages other than English

I worked on the Morse Code to English bi-directional translator. I worked on the text to speech for the English output. I worked on the output noise for the translated English into Morse Code. I worked on the file output downloader.

I worked on the front end design and layout, as well as various portions of the audio Morse Code conversions and audio input. Additionally, I integrated Firebase capabilities for hosting, and file upload capabilities.
