OpenEXR VS tesseract-ocr

exr is a is a 100% Rust and 100% safe code library for reading and writing OpenEXR images. It is used by the popular image crate to read and write OpenEXR.

OpenEXR main house (English)

OpenEXR notes two Python options: openexrpython and OpenImageIO.

I have not tested it, but it seems like OpenEXR https://www.openexr.com/ is an alternative to Slimraw

Since its already rendered, you can check the beauty pass to see if it is already in a merged format. Change the extension to .exr and open it with EXR-IO https://www.exr-io.com/ in photoshop to see if your AOVs exist as layered data already. Depends on your settings of course if its in that format. Otherwise you will need to script the merge using some openexr tools available at https://www.openexr.com.

Visual Effects artist here. Nope. We're all on EXRs mainly (and of course JPGs)

Forgive the noob question (but that's what I am when it comes to CMAKE :D), but I'm currently trying to build Imathto use it with OpenEXR.

It looks like openexr has recently removed IlmBase: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/pull/929

Well, OpenEXR is open-source. It's not as though they're trying to turn a profit from it. People don't have to use it if they don't want.

You will also need to install the Tesseract OCR engine, which can be downloaded and installed from the following link: https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

PyTesseract Module [ Github ] EasyOCR Module [ Github ] PaddlePaddle OCR [ Github ]

It uses teseract for the OCR https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

Last update was pretty recent, and the git mentions tesseract 5 as a dep. so it's likely moved on a bit from when you last tried it:

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/releases

I suppose it depends on your use-case. For personal tasks like this it should be more than sufficient, and won't need user details/cc or whatever to use it.

Tesseract is an open-source OCR engine developed by Google. It is highly accurate and supports multiple languages. This library will do all the heavy lifting for us. We'll use it in this tutorial to quickly read the text in some images.

Tesseract? https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

Install Google Tesseract OCR (additional info how to install the engine on Linux, Mac OSX and Windows). You must be able to invoke the tesseract command as tesseract. If this isn’t the case, for example because tesseract isn’t in your PATH, you will have to change the “tesseract_cmd” variable pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd. Under Debian/Ubuntu you can use the package tesseract-ocr. For Mac OS users. please install homebrew package tesseract.

OCR detection will be done with Tesseract.

I’ve used Tesseract for this. It seems to work well with tabular data. https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

If you go this route, then using an app that can convert your handwritten notes to a digital format (indexed text), will give you a good balance between cognitive processing and efficient data storage/management; you can likely find many such apps on the App Store or Google Play. If you're interested in something more hands-on, on Arch you can probably experiment with Tesseract OCR in an interesting way (Example).
