Produce data from fixed OCR areas scanned.

Project Description:

Project is to design software which can use character recognition only on certain areas of scanned puff's/ jpegs etc to generate a number of data sets. The scans can all be the of same format and size and scanning areas roughly the same each run.

For illustrations - a collection of invoices where the name of recipient in the top left corner and total owed in the bottom right are all that are needed.

Ideally the program would ignore unwanted data - this should be made simpler in that the required data is a different color from backgrounds and other formatting.

Additional programming will be needed in the follow up project which will be analyzing the data and creating a user interface for easy reporting.

Skills required are C Programming, Mac OS, OCR, Software Architecture, Windows Desktop
