Hello, I am trying to recognized characters from the images taken from *mobile 
camera* at *72dpi* resolution with in 2-2.5 secs with complete processing. 
Can be found in the following link

   Tickets for 
OCR<https://picasaweb.google.com/107072433218124342258/TicketsForOCR?authuser=0&feat=directlink>

Ticket contains

   - little bit bad light
   - Non-text area
   - less resolution
   
I tried to feed the image direct to tesseract API and it is giving me 70% 
good results in 1sec average. But I want to increase the accuracy in 
noticing the time factor
So far I have tried

   1. Detect edges of the image
   2. Blob Analysis for blobs
   3. Binarized the ticket using adaptive thresholding

Then I tried to feed those binarized images to tesseract, the accuracy 
reduced to less than 50-60%, though binarized image look perfect. I also 
tried to look in to few research papers

   - http://psych.stanford.edu/~jlm/pdfs/Sternberg67.pdf

but no luck. Kindly help me in this and sorry if my question is so basic. 
Also I am trying not to use command line solution but I would prefer *Leptonica 
*and *OpenCV*.
