I have an automated process that extracts data from mobile pictures. I have good binarization tools that can clear backgrounds and noise, but they are coming up short. Some pictures have slight loss of sharpness due to slow shutter, lighting, shake, etc.
What software, API, or SDK can I use to improve pre-processing of these images to produce better sharpness of text?
Here is a (redacted) samples. I need to achieve sharp text lines and hopefully separate characters in the text.
Please send me a message if you would like to get the original image (iPhone 6) and play with it. I appreciate any feedback.
Thank you.
