# Kannada Alphabet Recognition using CNN

## Usage & Full Project

This repository only contains the trained model file (`full_model.h5`).

To use this model in a complete application—including a web interface where users can draw Kannada letters and get real-time predictions—please visit the full project repository:

**GitHub Repository:** [https://github.com/Nithin1729S/Kannada-CNN](https://github.com/Nithin1729S/Kannada-CNN)

The GitHub repo includes:
- Training code and dataset preprocessing
- Model architecture and evaluation
- A FastAPI backend for serving the model
- A Next.js (TypeScript) frontend with canvas drawing
- Complete setup instructions to run locally
