What is the difference between these two packages?
pip3 install pytesseract
pip3 install tesseract
Tesserocr is a Python wrapper around the Tesseract C++ API. Whereas Pytesseract is a wrapper for the tesseract-ocr CLI. Therefore with Tesserocr you can load the model at the beginning or your program, and run the model separately (for example in loops to process videos).
OK - one more step before we can use pytesseract, we need to figure out where our tesseract executable is installed. The tesseract executable location is needed for pytesseract to work properly.
From my experience Tesserocr is much faster than Pytesseract. Tesserocr is a python wrapper aroung the Tesseract C++ API. Whereas pytesseract is a wrapper the tesseract-ocr CLI.
Also the code is able to detect text, its just extremely slow. Recognising text from images is very cpu intensive - as a first step I would look at binarizing the input that is passed into image_to_string - this can speed up text recognition significantly.
