ScanQT android App

About ScanQt :
ScanQt is the combination of a portable Cardboard Box and an App to turn your mobile / tablet Camera to a powerfull document scanner .

Project development background
After research and consultation at tehlug (Tehran Linux Lug), also experimenting coding on AIDE, Android Studio and QT Creator, I decided to develop this App using Qt/C++. Download & Installation of Android Studio in Iran was the biggest trouble, since embargo does not allow download of the mentioned tools. Qt could generate Android, iOS and Windows Phone Apps. That feature would be important in the future. I found a very helpful example and started developing based on that example. The Android App uses phone/tablet camera and have two capture buttons; one for odd pages, one for even pages. There is another button in App to turn-on camera flash. After auto focusing on the 1st page, it would be possible to lock focus. This would significantly improve speed and performance of scanning.

please visit ScanQT project page on github and test apk :

Cool one!!!!. I appreciate you effort on this.

Interesting. Is the apk ready to use? It seem to be a clone of an Qt example project only.

my question is how i can ScanQT app to useful app and wich feature shoud include in ScanQT ?

I would suggest a "deskew" function. Turning the scanned image into a right angle is a bit trouble with standard desktop software. It is not really necessary to be a software feature, may be you could print few grid line over the card board to let user to place their camera in a right angle easily.

out of curiosity, why would you like to develop this project while it already has many document scanners available on mobile phone?

many thanks for your reply,

• Version zero, have a lot of bug's its not complete application, now i coding to release version 1.0 this days.
• we are developing hardware too.
• i try to create a simple, useful and Open source application designed especially for ScanQT hardware.
  ScanQT can Scan odd and even page Separate then merge images to single file correctly. I think this feature is not exist in any application now(maybe should create a video about this feature).

I think it will be better to tell how this feature works. That should be more interesting.

Moreover, can it be used as a book scanner? But page undistortion should be hard to do .

In this version i merge Qt touch gallery in my project.
In fact ScanQT based on two Qt example "QML Camera Example" and "Qt Quick Controls - Touch Gallery" You can find two example in links:
handle UI using: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquickcontrols-touch-example.html
handle camera using: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtmultimedia-multimedia-declarative-camera-example.html

many bug fixed and many more still exist!

NEW in this version:

Create Path automatic
Smooth UI
Deleting scanned documents
Continue scanning
View scanned pages
Camera flash ON, OFF button

Notice: Create PDF button not working!
