Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

From the creator

Check out watsonx: https://ibm.biz/BdvDa9 Optical character recognition (OCR) is sometimes referred to as text recognition. An OCR program extracts and repurposes data from scanned documents, camera images and image-only pdfs. OCR software singles out letters on the image, puts them into words and then puts the words into sentences, thus enabling access to and editing of the original content. It also eliminates the need for manual data entry. Watch IBM Master Inventor, Martin Keen, explain OCR's evolution and how OCR works today. #AI #Software #ITModernization #OpticalCharacterRecognition #OCR #lightboard #IBM

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
