That was the smoothest transition to a sponsor spot I've ever seen.

FILE FORMATS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE! png vs jpg mp4 vs mkv mp3 vs ...?

I gotta say, I really liked this one! Very informative but what really made it for me was the seamless sponsor spot. I'd love to see more in such a way!

Irish travelers will be deeply hurt that OCR and even you don't accept that dag is a word. Has no one ever tried to sell you a dag? Or admired your dag?

OCR was one of the first practical uses of neural networks back in the 70s or 80s. Maybe even earlier? When I took an AI class in college, we wrote a simple OCR neural net and it was pretty easy.

the OCR can use different techniques to recognize character, one is creating a model based on data of different characters and training the sofware to recognize them( Artificial neural networks is an example of this)

I love how Luke explains stuff :D

that's good and all but I would have thought you'd give us and idea of what kind of devices use OCR for consumer/business.

There are also programs for character recognition on your screen. Project Naptha is a Chrome extension that can let you copy and paste words in an image. And ShareX has OCR that you can use for any program.

Thank so much for you explaining Sir.

When Luke said it wouldn't look as crisp and the video resolution went down I instantly checked if I was at 1080p

Just what I was looking for. Good Job!

I was going to ask "How about Voice Recognition next?" but searched your channel, and I'll be damned, 1 year ago, you guys work fast! (Not sure how I've been missing it though, alot of content much?). It's a shame neither is "How to create your own Voice Recognition and Optical Character Recognition as fast as possible"

My ScanSnap IX500 usese software to make scans readable. It works pretty well and the IX500 is blisteringly fast.

Well, with OCR, there is an exception for the lack of accuracy. When basic modern OCR was being developed, they made a series of fonts deigned to be as accurate as possible. These fonts were OCR-A and OCR-B. These fonts are super accurate with OCR, and there is usually never any error with them.

could you do videos explaining how mastering audio and video works? (if it doesnt already exist)

This is the first time i've watched a tech video and actually not had a headache after. Waiting for the interpretive google dance hehe

Which OCR recognizes Handwritten text that you have shown at the end? I couldn't find anything which actually does that within a permissible error rate :/

Very useful knowledge and easy to understand provided to the new faces of this technology.

luke are you finally using linux? i saw that little ubuntu font box :D good job mate!

Sir can you tell me how can i find duplicate numbers with any OCR app or how should i pursue to make an app for that ?

You should do an as fast as possible on assistive technologies such as screen readers

Will it also recognize language? because "dag" translates to "day" in Danish

In my industry, which is electronics. We use OCR in our automated optical machine to detect component marking on components as small as micro BGA's that are like 400microns wide. It's amazing to see how you can push it's limits. Just, sometimes like when there's a sufficient amount of flux on the components it makes it impossible to read.

Is that an 8k green-screen video? Looks super clean

Google translate app with OCR is pretty nifty when you can translate foreign signs etc.

I did some OCR recently. Tesseract on Linux was the best at recognising the text accurately, but it outputs plain text only. There are 3rd party GUIs, but still none really preserve formatting. ABBYY FineReader on Windows (the gold standard for home use) was quite good at preserving formatting but worse at recognising text accurately. My scan was 200 pages of black 12pt Times New Roman on white paper scanned at 300dpi which should be one of the easiest things to process, and it regularly made mistakes on 1 vs l vs I , y vs v, H vs II etc. And these were often in places the dictionary should have easily known what it should have been. How often do you get a lower case L in the middle of a long number or a double upper case I at the start of a word or a v at the end of a word. It took 3 hours to go through the document correcting the mistakes it highlighted. Don't know how many mistakes are in there that it didn't highlight.

Highly recommend PaddleOCR! 80 languages supported! Good performance! Easy to use! It would be great if bloggers could do a comparative evaluation of the popular OCR tools.

Can you please tell me about any OCR software for devanagari language . Which can cost me less

Wow, I saw this video right near before my National exam days.

Dennis: "You are dancing?"

I downloaded but , I thought that it will recognize the different fonts that are someonetimes in just ONE page. Does anyone know an APP/Program that can recognize the font on a scanned document?

Can you do video on Virtualization such as hardware, network and storage Virtualization.

I've got a Chrome extension that does OCR within images. Sometimes comes in really handy.

Luke - I actually watched the ad because of your fresh moves!

YEES More history please. love knowledge.

Saw OCR and immediately thought it had something to do with the Exam Board.

Linus ad (pulseway) on linus video. I love this ahahaha

Haven't read a single comment regarding the video's topic.... only "First", "Notification Squad where you at" and comments trying to be witty..... Great video by the way, i love getting general introductory information on the subject of my studies (computer engineer). Keep at it TechQuickie :D

I love u guys man

great video!

well google releases a OCRT (optical character recognition translator). which translate even other character aside from ASCII (chinese, japanese, thai and other non alpha character)... it become useful for those who travel and find themselves trap into a place where no one can speak or understand english.

Cool! Thx a lot.

Dag is in swedish day

Speaking of machine learning..... that would make a good techquickie :D

Linus tech tips as fast as possible

I really like Tesseract withHomebrew on Mac for OCR.

Good video. Thumbs up!

convolutional and LSTM neural networks are the cutting edge for these applications

You should explain core parking in the near future.

Hi! Could you do a FPS 1%low explaination? I have seen so many tech reviewers use this term but i have no idea what it means.

we need a firefox plugin that will log what youtube upload has paid promotions, skip past it and end the video when teh promotion happens. this video is an example of native advertisting

OCRs font work ive tried them but they dont properly. They dont read encrypted documents they spit out random incorrect letters.

OneNote has a pretty good built in OCR for small text articles - and it's free !! ABBYY FineReader does an excellent job converting image PDFs into searchable text based PDFs !!

I used to use an augmented translator app for my French tests. Shit just about worked half the time

So I guess the real question here is why is Luke only wearing socks while recording this? Doesn't Linus give sandals to all the employees?

But can OCR ever distinguich hand written numbers and letters from eachother? Such as 0's & o's, G's & 6's, 1's & i's ,H's & 4's , j's & i's, 7's & 1's ,0's & 8's etc,,,, because numbers and letters looks similar to eachother.

Watching this 10 minutes before class because I have a home and I’m a highly functional college student

Man, the ACR was great. Hardly any recoil

I mean tbh ... when I write in OneNote some text and microsoft can figure out what I just wrote and convert it into real characters I'm always astonished since my handwriting is horrible.

Funny used OCR last night. What a coincidence

Thumbs up if anyone else checked the videoquality at 0:36 xD

I've tried Tesseract. Its free and pretty accurate.

Luke, you have to tell me when you go on tour -- I need to leave the country at that point....

do you like dags?

I couldn't help but to think of the line from the movie Snatch when Brad Pitt said "ya like dags?" lol

Interesting !

Do speech recognition as fast as possible please.

Make an episode on network topologies

Micky: Ya like dags? Tommy: Dags? Micky: Yea, dags Tommy: OH, dogs, sure I like dags

What if it's supposed to say dag, that's also a completely legitimate word used in Australian English, plus it could also be used to describe a Directed Acyclic Graph, also known as a tree.

d'ya like dags?

Thanks

If the software were dutch, the word would be "dag" (which means day in english), and not "dog".

Images in video editing?

Is there any awesome free software that do this? Linux or PC. Besides Google drive that is

awesome

What about if you're trying to copy the line "D'ya like dags?" from Snatch?

Would be much better if was a fold able or detachable at least to use it as a tablet

I WANT INTERPRETIVE DANCE TRANSLATOR NOW!!!

Dag is a word OCR software would not pick this up spellcheck does not pickup this also

3:33 dag is actualy morning in dutch

This isn't in 4k! :(

Oxford Cambridge RSA

Who else had nostalgia @ 0:36?

Tesseract is the best OCR program out there. It is Open Source and runs on all major OS

Techquickie you do know most scanning software do this as part of their operation. If your's doesn't perhaps you should get a new one.

I liked this "don't worry, be happy" in your video. Are you a Meher Baba lover too!!!!

what about Fourier transform?

Dag actually means Hey or day in Dutch!

most scanners look pretty good to be fair

I liked your dancing, ignore dennis. great video.

Nice dancing, Luke

tfw dag is day in dutch

My Galaxy S3 could do this. Made lab reports super manageable.

When did Dan Reynolds start doing tech stuff?

Luke kinda reminds me of Chris Pratt

Not one mention of neural networks?

TPS reports!!!!!! What a perfect example. Almost an easter egg.

So use a normal "photographic" scanner , then use OCR services such as google drive .
