At Viewport.ai, we develop intelligent software for the process industry. Our software excels in making vast amounts of technical data understandable.
A crucial feature of our software is its ability to recognize text in scanned documents and technical drawings. These scans do not contain textual information in a traditional sense, requiring optical character recognition (OCR) to extract text from the scans.
Despite significant advancements in technology, OCR is not flawless! Comparing different OCR solutions (and configurations) is vital for achieving optimal results. Preliminary research indicates that there is no standard approach for testing OCR effectiveness. We aim to develop this testing framework and, if it does not involve disclosing customer data, make it available as an open-source project.
The testing framework is to be developed in .NET / C# to allow integration into our existing continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline. Your role is crucial in designing, developing, and optimizing this framework to compare various OCR solutions effectively.
Join us at Viewport.ai to contribute to pushing the boundaries of OCR technology and improving the accessibility of technical data. Contact us today to learn more and apply for this internship opportunity!
