Perform OCR Operation on Remote Images & Auto Detect Resolution of OMR Image using Java

LANE COVE, Australia - Aug. 31, 2015 - PRLog -- What’s new in this release?

We are pleased to announce the release of Aspose.OCR for Java 2.6.0. This release includes a new OmrImage property to auto detect the image resolution of the OMR scanned image along with the means to load the image from remote location to perform OCR operation.  Aspose.OCR for Java now provides the OmrImage.setAutoDetectResolution property to auto detect the resolution of the scanned image to perform OMR operation. The OmrEngine tries to compare the resolution detected for the scanned image with the resolution of the OMR template. If they do not match with a slight tolerance, the OmrEngine generates an exception. The code snippet on the blog announcement page demonstrates how to use the newly exposed property to auto detect the image resolution. Aspose.OCR for Java provides facility to perform OCR operation on remote images as well as local ones. You just need to supply the URL of the image to newly exposed fromUrl method for the ImageStream class. This release has incorporated some enhancements. The list of enhancements includes, the OmrEngine can now take care of low resolution scanned images to perform OMR operation, Improved OMR algorithm for better handling of OMR’s GridElement & marks filled with pencil and DetectTextRegions property work in the correct way i.e. if you set this property to TRUE. It will ignore the manually set text recognition block. This release includes plenty of new & enhanced features as listed below

·         Support BarCode element properties for defining barcode type and other settings

·         Ability to load image from URL

·         OMR should detect image resolution automatically in Java

·         Improve handling of noisy and low-contrast images

·         Incorrect result returned by the markers filled with pencil

·         OMR results for the Grid Element does not seem legit

·         DetectTextRegions property is not working correctly
