Place your phone's camera on the text and tap the Camera button. You can also choose an image from the gallery. Crop the image if you want and tap Scan to convert the image to editable text.
Find an image with text on it, no matter the length, with one click, you can easily take a screenshot and sync it to your cloud. Speechify will read the text out loud.
As others said OpenCV or OCR is the way to go. Google maintains one OCR library called as "Tesseract" (reminds me of Avengers :P). To make the job little easier there is a fork of Tesseract called as Tess-Two
It combines some other useful tools like Leptonica (image processing library). Build instructions are given on the Readme file.
To get started you can check out very easy to use OCR library Easy OCR Library Android which uses Tess-Two under the hood.
Again usage instructions are in the Readme file. It is already built so you don't need to build Tess-Two.
