Implementing OCR on IOS

Question

Was wondering if anyone had some idea on how one would implement OCR image linking on an IOS device.

What I exactly want the app to do is scan an image using the iPhones camera, then recognise that image. When the image is recognised the app should open a link that is relative to the image.

A better example of what I am talking about is made by a company called Augment . They make a product called "Trackers" which is exactly what I would like to implement.

Answer 1

There are no in-build/custom SDK's that do your exact requirement.

However, you can achieve it by customizing the OpenCV library or any of Augmented reality SDK's.

Answer 2

Now there is Real-Time Recognition SDK ( http://rtrsdk.com ). It is free by the way. Disclaimer: I work for ABBYY
