[THEORY/IDEA]Homework OCR - A program that does homework for you![THEORY/IDEA] - InfinityCipher - Feb 2, 2013
I'm thinking of trying this just to kill some time, do you think it would be possible?
How it will work :
First you would take a picture of your homework, after that you would put it on your computer.
Next you would input the picture into the program
The program will then analyse it using OCR and calculate all the problems, after its done it will print out answers.
NOTE: This is more of a playful project then anything so yeh...

I doubt you (or anyone) would really be able to make this happen.

It's just a playful idea, sheesh 🤩

It's not really practical but I guess if it were more on the possible side then it would be a cool project. It would take months and months of coding and by that time, you may not even have any homework left to do.

If I could I would give you all the rep in the world right now
OP: Creating a program this complex would take much more time than ACTUALLY doing your homework.
Unless your homework was to create this program... in which case you are fucked

Exactly and lol you don't have a clue how much work this would take.
1. For OCR to even work you would need to add in every letter of every font possible lowercase and uppercase.
2. Your idea is somewhat of an AI and let me tell you this to make something even close to AI you need to be a genius.
This project wouldn't take months but years to perfect and not worth the hassle...

Nothing is impossible. Yes this is possible, but it would take a LONG time. And money. But if you did make this, you'd make a large sum of money.

I know that... Thank you.. and its not just fonts, pictures are not perfect black and white and the slightest rotation would make reading it even harder. It would take a crazy amount of work and thats why I said it was completely impractical

Exam boards have this.
They analyze the papers and cut them on a specific borders and check them through the machine, but of course they go over it, as it's important :)
Good luck with this -_-'

I wasn't directly talking to you, I would have quoted you if I had.
