Using Python 3 + Google Cloud Vision API's OCR to extract text from photos and scanned documents

Just a quickie test in Python 3 (using Requests) to see if Google Cloud Vision can be used to effectively OCR a scanned data table and preserve its structure, in the way that products such as ABBYY FineReader can OCR an image and provide Excel-ready output.

The short answer: No. While Cloud Vision provides bounding polygon coordinates in its output, it doesn't provide it at the word or region level, which would be needed to then calculate the data delimiters.

On the other hand, the OCR quality is pretty good, if you just need to identify text anywhere in an image, without regards to its physical coordinates. I've included two examples:

Saving GIF/MP4 Frames with Texel

The above GIF was rendered with Canvas2D and JavaScript. I used texel, a tool I am developing but have not yet released.

If you want to try this very experimental tool, install the latest working version like so:

npm install texel@1.0.15 --global

mattdesl

npm install texel@1.0.15 --global
npm install three
texel index.js --open

Wait for output.
