TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of display boards and specifically to a voice recognition based intelligent snooker score board.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] The Snooker game is a very interesting and obsessed game in the youngsters. It is a simple cue stick and a ball game which need to pot the balls in the pocket. A set of snooker balls consists of one white cue ball and 15 color-coded numbered balls. The balls numbered 1 through 8 have solid colors and the balls numbered 9 through 15 are white with a centre band of color. Every ball has different points. When a player pots the balls in one or more of the six pockets, he/she gets the score corresponding to the balls he potted in the baskets and that score is added to his account and then displayed on a board. The entire process of score calculation from the number and types of balls potted and adding the calculated score to by the player’s account is done manually by the referee or manager. As human is involved in this entire process of score calculation and addition to respective player’s account so, it is erroneous in nature. It demands that the manager/referee should be attentive all the time and should check the potted ball with utmost care and sincerity.
[0004] Therefore, there is a need of intelligent snooker board to automatic this entire process of score calculation from the type and number of potted balls and adding that score to the players account without human intervention.
