Is there a library or an API for text recognition?
-
Hello! I am searching for a library or an API for text recognition that would be easy to integrate into a QML + android app? Android provides OCR API but Ican not find any feedback about using it in a QML app. I think OpenCV is little too much, correct me if I am wrong. I want to be able to take a photo with an android device and to recognize text (written not by a hand) from the photo.
Please any advice would be great. Thank you. -

Please any advice would be great. Thank you.@MikhailG There are some open source OCR engine out there (google for them).
For example: https://github.com/tesseract-ocr
But all of them are C/C++. You will need to write C++ code and interact with QML then.
You should be able to use Android OCR API in C++ as well. -
