Thanks for your great ideas Hermann. In my next experiment I think I'll
start by looking for any scrabble tile by looking for its [known]
background color, and then work out to its edges. That should give me
both the grid cell size and a starting point for discovering all cells
in the grid.

You need some criteria to find the topleft of the grid and the
size of one letter: color/transparency/a marker(fixed image part)...
You could also use pattern recognition for that.
One thing I found is when I cropped my test image to include only one
horizontal word, tesseract handled that fine. So... if I could detect
the grid pattern in which all the letters are laid out, maybe I could
feed the letters to an OCR tool one word or char at a time and get the
results I'm lo
Thanks for the followup on this. I experimented some with tesseract and
came to the same conclusion.
Since the values assigned to each character are standard wthin Scrabble,
I don't really need to detect those tiny numerals. But the alpha chars
are of course essential.
I believe there must b
After a second read I think it will be hard to find a service to do that
for you. And this is not doable using tesseract or similar from LiveCode:
AFAIK, no "ordinary" OCR software is able to detect and read horizontal
*and* vertical text and distinguish clearly between the board's "Score
text" an
Thanks Richmond and hh - really appreciate these ideas. I'll be looking
into them.

Well, that'd involve some sort of OCR . . . So you've either got to wrap
some code up from elsewhere, or roll your own OCR routine in LiveCode.
Tough call.

I want to [programmatically] take a picture of a Scrabble board and then
take from that image the characters displayed in it, and maintain the
organization of the text. In other words, I want to convert the text
displayed in the image to text strings.
Any ideas where I should start?
