Abstract

Smart lens is an implementation of OCR in an android application which is an augmented reality meaning application. It uses built in camera on smart phones to quickly scan an image to find and recognize the word and then displays the meaning of the given word on the device’s display. Its main component is optical character recognition (OCR), which is used to identify words in that image and uses a dictionary to provide the meaning. Optical character recognition is an electronic or mechanical process which converts handwritten, typed or printed text into machine encoded text. The desired word is extracted and the word undergoes various processes like filtering, gray scaling, binarization, feature extraction and character recognition. In this paper we present a way to build an OCR which can be used to read the text and thereby integrating it into the android application which will provide the meaning for the word using the inbuilt dictionary.

Key-Words / Index Term
