I need a Python3 package recommendation for some basic image recognition. I need a package to integrate it with another Python program, not a GUI program that cannot be automatized.

I have a batch of jpg files with some icons on them, but they are expected, in the sense that they can only be from a set of 20+ icons. I have several, and can obtain more, if necessary 1000+ and up. All have the same size.

Below said icons there are alpha-numeric codes. The position of all elements is also predictable, not random.

For example, in the upper left corner you see a yellow circular dot with something like XYZ-232554 below it.

When I hear image recognition, I immediately think OpenCV (where CV stands for Computer Vision).

It has excellent support for Python, with lots of tutorials.

For OCR, you want Tessract.

And a quick search will find some useful tutorials, such as :

I will leave it to you to search for more tutorials, but that's your answer. Good luck

    I'll give this combination a try. At another place, I was recommended the combination TensorFlow+Keras, which seems less specific. – Quora Feans Mar 30 at 19:08
