Traditional OCR is all about technology that has “studied” fonts and symbols enough to be able to identify almost all variations of machine-printed text. But therein lies the limitations of traditional OCR: while it's great for extracting text from paper, it can't read handwriting.
OCR with Pytesseract and OpenCV. Pytesseract or Python-tesseract is an OCR tool for python that also serves as a wrapper for the Tesseract-OCR Engine. It can read and recognize text in images and is commonly used in python ocr image to text use cases.
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a technology for recognizing text in images, such as scanned documents and photos.
OpenCV package is used to read an image and perform certain image processing techniques. Python-tesseract is a wrapper for Google's Tesseract-OCR Engine which is used to recognize text from images. Download the tesseract executable file from this link.
