  • English (English)
  • Urdu (اردو)
  • Arabic (العربية)
  • Russian (Русский)
  • Chinese (Simplified) (简体中文)

  • Image processing: In the processing phase, the image is cleaned and filtered. The contrast is enhanced, and the “noise” from the image is removed to get it ready for text extraction. If there is a tilt or skew in the image, it is corrected in this phase as well.
  • Text detection: Then, the parts of the image containing the text are identified.
  • Character isolation/segmentation: Then, the characters are isolated from one another and separated individually.
  • Character analysis: After that, each of the characters is analyzed. The OCR engine recognizes the shapes and visual characteristics of each so that it can effectively recognize them.
  • Database matching: Each of the characters' shape/visual appearance is matched with digital text characters in the OCR engine’s database.
  • Output: Once the characters are all matched and recognized, they are presented to the user as digital output.
