hello i am developing an mobile application (android) to share medical reports. One part of the application is read the text in those reports (reports are in JPEG / image format). Since medical reports contain sensitive data i can't use a third party service to do this. medical reports cannot be shared with a third party in any case. This is a requirement.

is this possible to do? How can i do this? Please guide me .

  • You need OCR, look into Tesseract maybe. – Nicolas May 13 '20 at 14:05

You simply cannot do an OCR on android platform without a third party SDK. If you still want to do so, you need to design your own OCR for that which I am pretty sure is tough. I recommend you check Tesseract. It is an open source OCR project that can be easily integrated with Android. Also check this link: OCR in Android Application
