Text Recognition using Android Base Mobiles


Text Recognition using Android Base Mobiles
1. Introduction
Purpose:
The purpose of this software is to develop a text recognition system for Android based mobile devices. Printed text without skew is mainly the focus of the system but subject to time constraints; hand written text and skew can also be incorporated in the system. The recognized text may also be used for a wide variety of applications.

2. Document Conventions:
Android based mobiles: Mobile Phones having Android as operating system
OCR: Optical Character Recognition

4. Product Scope:
Purpose of the system is to develop an Android based application capable of localizing the textual regions in the input image and convert it into text .The work will mainly focus on printed text without skew. Optionally, skew correction and limited recognition of isolated handwritten characters may also be added. Only a limited range of fonts will be handled by the system. Subject to availability of time, a number of applications based on the recognized text can also be developed.

  • Windows XP or above
  • Android OS
  • Software Packages
  • Android SDK(Software Development Kit)
  • Eclipse IDE(Integrated Development Environment)
  • Java
5. Hardware Requirements:

  • Personal Computer
  • Mobile Phone Having Android as OS and a 2-4Mpx Camera
  • Connecting Cables
