Hello!
I am new to Arduino, and at my school we have to find a project to work with.
I want to know if it's possible to make a Arduino, that can read sigle letters and give a specifik output for each letter, or read a whole word and give out one or more outputs for each specific word.
Is that possible or too much for Arduino?
What would you suggest?
Thanks!
The only Arduino that could possibly tackle that is the Yun.

I suspect a RaspberryPi or BeagleBone would be more suitable.
In any case, write a PC program to do what you want and when it works then you can consider how you could scale it down to a smaller platform.

When you say 'read letter or words' how are they being read? Visually using a camera/scanner or typed on a keyboard/read from a text document. You heading says scan but is that using a scanner or something else?
And, what does "give a specifik output for each letter" mean? What kind of output, to where?
The idea is to capture text via a camera,
Not on an Arduino.
it sents a output, for example to a soundfile or a vibrator, to notice the user of what word has been captured.
How do you send an output, of ANY kind, to a sound file? That doesn't even make sense.
Personally, I think you are a long ways from being able to develop this project using ANY hardware, since you don't seem to have a clue what a computer can do, let alone a microcontroller.
Use your Pi and hope you can find some Linux drivers for the hard part which is all of it.
Without this you are pushing an undergraduate project level of difficulty at least.
Optical character regnition is a tricky thing.
