Lip Reading is a visual means of communication. It relies on looking at the speaker's mouth; especially his lips to translate the speaker's words or sentences. The visual image (shape of mouth expression) and movement of lips make the visual recognition of speaking letters, words and phrases: gestures and expressions on the face. The location of the mouth and its extracted feature is important step to assist to better comprehend the visual speech. Researchers are constantly looking for innovative techniques to improve the effectiveness of lip. That is why this paper provides lip localization. Face recognition based on extraction technique from input video frames towards the segment of the mouth area. We'll be using an RGB & HSV color model, along with a adjust channels value, elliptical mask creation and use techniques to perform additional edge detection and morphological procedures.
