OptimEyes Developer Adds Tesseract-based OCR
OptimEyes Developer version 25.6.2.0 is available for download from the product page.
This update adds a new OCR Tool powered by the open source Tesseract OCR engine. Our in-app scripting enables the OCR Tool to be easily combined with our other Tools to quickly create solutions to perform OCR on single or multiple image files, frames from video files, or live camera feeds. The text found in the images can be displayed live, stored in scripting variables for use in other Tools, exported to text files, etc.
In order to support arbitrary length text strings from the OCR Tool, the string variable class in OptimEyes was updated to remove the former 260 character limit. String memory is now managed transparently by the string class. Additionally, the class has been updated to enable appending to an existing string. All Custom Tools may now take advantage of the updated string variable class.
