RoloScan

RoloScan, Android candy.

At a trade show, you can enjoy automagic networking by taking photos of business cards and getting new names and numbers into your list of contacts without typing. Sales teams take note!

The app is more than a business productivity tool. At the museum, or on the hiking trail, you can capture the text of the labels and signs as you go through and take photos of the beautiful surroundings. That information can easily be changed into captions and more, fun facts for your future photo albums.

RoloScan is a multi-purpose tool to turn images into selectable, editable text. You can take a picture of any text or get an image file to your phone and RoloScan will use the Tensor Flow A.I. toolkit to open that image and read the text in it.

RoloScan respects your privacy. It works entirely on your phone without having to send anything you want to scan to a server on the internet.

RoloScan is multilingual. You can get English or Spanish inside the app. The text recognition tool can read many more languages and is not limited to:

Catalan

Danish

Dutch

English

Finnish

French

German

Hungarian

Italian

Latin

Norwegian

Polish

Portugese

Romanian

Spanish

Swedish

Tagalog

Turkish

RoloScan is an open-source project on Github. Questions and feedback are welcome.
