Just tried a couple of images with digits to test out the OCR w/ the TEXT_DETECTION setting, unfortunately it assumes what it reads is a defined language with words. I am looking into using this for digit-recognition and only digits, but that doesn't seem to be a use case (as it is now). Does anybody know of another service/API that can do reliable digits-only OCR on (not the finest clear quality) images?
- mikevin 11y agoWeird, their example at https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-vision/tree/master/python/text https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-vision/tree/mas... shows digits. Your best bet is probably ABBYY if you want something else.
- chippy 11y agoI hope to play with this also tomorrow, as I want to see if it can extract numbers from pictures of a street. The docs say "TEXT_DETECTION 1024 x 768 OCR requires more resolution to detect characters" How big were the images you used?
