Free Apps, Demos and Utilities for WinRT in the Windows Store

Posted on 2013-04-17 12:21:08 by Greg

Now that LEADTOOLS Anywhere™ has hit the market, LEAD Technologies is publishing several of its demos as free application utilities for the Windows Store, Google Play and the App Store. Below are the latest free WinRT apps approved for the Windows Store that showcase the award-winning LEADTOOLS technology such as formats, image processing, OCR, Barcode, DICOM and PACS. The source code for each of these demos is available in the main LEADTOOLS evaluation to help get developers started on their LEADTOOLS Anywhere™ projects.

Publishing our demos to the respective mobile app markets for Windows, Android and Apple is much more than just another way to spread the word about LEADTOOLS Anywhere™. As many developers are aware, the approval processes for these stores are very stringent, especially when your application uses a third party SDK. By taking our demos through these approval processes, LEAD has gone the extra mile to ensure your development experience with LEADTOOLS is hassle-free.

Enhanced OCR Noise Removal Coming Soon

Posted on 2013-03-12 17:02:22 by Greg

While making my rounds through the engineering department, the OCR team showed me some really impressive enhancements to the Advantage OCR engine coming soon. They've accomplished a lot, but my personal favorite is what they've done to the Advantage OCR engine's preprocessing algorithm. With much sweat, tears and coffee, they've fine-tuned the noise removal algorithm with impressive results. Other engines may have difficulty seeing between the lines (literally) when forms and documents use separator bars or boxes for individual characters. LEADTOOLS Advantage OCR Engine is doing a superb job at intelligently removing the noise and returning only the text of interest, rather than getting hung up on bars, dashes, speckles and other types of noise that should simply be ignored.



Other than the obvious benefit of improved accuracy, this is especially helpful for customers using forms recognition where character separators are prevalent. On documents where it might have been necessary to use a separate zone for each character and piece them together post-recognition, now only a single zone is needed since the separator bars and cells will no longer be taken into account.
