Hi All,
Sorry for cross-posting, but I'm just writing to let everyone know that I just released a new experimental VOCR. If you haven't heard VOCR, it's an app that lets you take screenshot of your mac screen, apply OCR, navigate the result, and move the mouse using Voiceover. It's similar to features on JAWS and NVDA. Previously I made VOCR to utilize third party tools such as Tesseract, Keyboard Maestro, and ImageMagick, so you needed to fiddle with terminal commands. Now, new VOCR is a standalone app, and furthermore it utilizes the OCR capability in VisionKit that takes advantage of machine learning on MacOS Catalina. The result is much faster and accurate than Tesseract. Because the tight security in Catalina, there are multiple steps for the initial setup. You can read the instruction below. https://github.com/chigkim/VOCR/tree/VK This is highly experimental, so use at own your risk! Lastly, this kind of feature should be really built into Voiceover in my opinion. If you know anyone at Apple, let them know.
