OCR system for users'IDs

Need help
#1

Hello everyone,

I would like to integrate a kind of OCR system to my app that would allow me to extract the validity date of my users’ IDs, but I don’t know if it’s possible on bubble, can someone guide me?

Thanks

I used OCR years ago.

Basically you need to take a good quality image, then send it to an OCR API, and they will send you back what it thinks it found.

Often you will need regex to filter out a lot of stuff. For instance, a zero looks an awful lot like Oo0Q. An I can look a lot like ilL1!| .

I think you get the picture. It’s a lot of work, but works very well. There is no free native bubble way of doing it though.

Good luck!
