Japanese text recognizer which scans documents and photos for japanese text
Features Aedict OCR
Aedict3 OCR is a stand-alone application which performs OCR (optical character recognition) of Japanese text, preferably on a simple white background.
You can store multiple pages of Japanese text, gradually perform OCR over parts of these pages, correct the OCRed text and analyze the text with Aedict3.Aedict3 OCR uses an off-line OCR engine.
Such engines uses a lot of processor power, which in turn will drain your battery faster and may heat up your phone in extreme cases.
The algorithm is good, but it is not perfect and it may mis-find some characters.
You will get best results for a black-on-white sharp images, with uniform white background, such as printouts.
The algorithm is probably next to unusable on color-y magazine covers and hand-drawn kanjis (found for example on temples).Aedict3 OCR works on Android 4.0 and greater.Features:- Aedict3 OCR remembers OCRed images and OCRed text for multiple pages- Text auto-correction and manual correction (ば -> ぱ, つっ etc)- Back-up and restore of images and texts, to the internal phone memory, ownCloud and DropboxPermissions:Read/Write External storage: used when importing images from GalleryNetwork: used when backing up/restoring data to/from ownCloud and DropboxFixed crash when OCRed images suddenly becomes corrupted or missingMinor library update

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"This worked wonderfully with an older Android version, but forget about putting it on a new phone."
David
"All it does is complain about not being able to find the image it just took. Hasn't been updated in years. Useless."
kaitou
"does not work at all. Try it only if you have a super super phone"

"For one can there be an option to make the horizontal reading the default?"
Rowan Krzysiak
"Went from this: "Love aedict in general but honestly this is of no use as it is. Tried different Japanese books and never got anything scanned correctly even though it works with Google translate. An offline OCR would be great so please develop this more." To this : Great tool, if you used translate you will need to re-learn how to use it. Ths thing is google translate automatically tries to get the best picture, here you have to tinkle with the camera app but once you have a clear picture this is actually superior. Although with a bad picture it is catastrophic. A great addition would be to have a button to keep the flash on until pressed again, it would help getting focus. zoom your pic to have a more precise selection, it also helps recognition. Good thing my internet box crashed and I couldn't access translate for I had given this a miss (while using aedict all the time...) I guess there is still room for improvment ergonomy wise but this is already a great tool."

"Bought it with high expectations because Aedict was extremely good, but now I have buyer's remorse. It doesn't work on most of the text"
Jamal Ahmed
"Not as accurate as Google translates free camera capture function."
Anthony Jerome
"Works perfect on my DoCoMo Galaxy S4. Brilliant app."

"I tried the app on a manga (vertical text) and it worked quite well. I had to add some small corrections (がinstead ofヵ) but I guess it will get better. After OCR'ing the text I pressed the search button... Edit: I see, you can do it from the menu! (thanks!) Also, you could add some contrast/level manual adjustment if it helps the algorithm I guess. About the price, glad to support your apps."
