SwiftOCR
A fast and simple OCR library written in Swift, optimized for recognizing short alphanumeric codes like gift cards.
What is SwiftOCR?
SwiftOCR is an open-source optical character recognition library written in Swift for iOS and macOS. It uses a neural network to recognize text in images, specifically optimized for short, one-line alphanumeric codes like gift card or serial numbers. It solves the problem of slow and inaccurate OCR for these specialized use cases by offering faster processing and higher accuracy than traditional tools.
iOS and macOS developers who need to integrate OCR functionality into their apps, particularly for recognizing short codes, serial numbers, or gift cards where speed and accuracy are critical.
Developers choose SwiftOCR because it is significantly faster and more accurate than Tesseract for alphanumeric code recognition, uses modern neural network techniques, and can be implemented with just a few lines of code, making it much simpler to integrate than complex legacy OCR solutions.
