Inspiration
I want to ctrl-f my written notes
What it does
Take a photo with our iOS app and we'll convert the photo with text on it to a latex pdf that can be searched on our web application
How I built it
iOS(swift), Flask(python) for server, js for front-end, tesseract for OCR, MongoDB for queries
Challenges I ran into
lol the technology for OCR is not quite there yet
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Integrating our iOS and Web applications
What I learned
MongoDB indexing feature Swift Flask Framework
What's next for Latex my Notes
Automatic categorize notes into collections waiting for open source OCR technologies to get more accurate
