Extract Highlighted Text from a Book using Python

• tesseract-ocr

  121 58,309 8.9 C++

  Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine (main repository)

  

I'm going to use the Tesseract OCR engine and library, and its Python wrapper PyTesseract for text extraction. But there are numerous libraries out there to extract text from an image. In a real world application I would probably use cloud services from AWS, Google or Microsoft to handle this task.

• opencv-python

  50 4,183 6.2 Python

  Automated CI toolchain to produce precompiled opencv-python, opencv-python-headless, opencv-contrib-python and opencv-contrib-python-headless packages.

  

I'm going to use the OpenCV library and its Python interface. OpenCV encompasses many functions for object detection in image and video, machine learning, image processing and many more.
