Offline Image To Text Recognition (OCR) in android


How to build the android native SDK for image to text recognition. (I have done well with some APIs from web services. But this time, I just want to make the app without any Internet Connection, no APIs, and no Web Services. Just an offline OCR app). So my question here is

  1. how to crop each and every word containing in the image?
  2. how to compare the cropped text with the alphabets and characters?

Solution

  • I guess u can use Tesseract OCR Tool, an open source alternative by Google. How to integrate that in Android is simple via Tesseract Android Tools Have a look at the tess-two project on github, it's very easy to use and gives good OCR results
