Capturing and presenting text using video image capture for optical character recognition

摘要

An apparatus for capturing text found on an object. The apparatus comprises an image capture subsystem which includes a video camera configured to capture a plurality of images to form a video stream. The image capture subsystem is configured to generate a master image from the video stream. The apparatus additionally comprises an Optical Character Recognition (“OCR”) subsystem configured to process the master image to form a digital text that corresponds to at least some of the text on the object.
