Easy-to-Use Apple Vision wrapper for text extraction and clustering
I’ve been using textra for a wrapper on the Apple vision sdk

But this project calls torch and a bunch of other ML libs. So it’s not using Apple vision?

The most interesting piece of code here IMO is the recognize() method, which demonstrates how to call Vision.VNImageRequestHandler and Vision.VNRecognizeTextRequest from Python code using pyobjc.
