PaddleOCR Lite document scanner on bare Raspberry Pi 4

Emerging

This project helps you turn scanned images or photos of documents into editable text using a Raspberry Pi. It takes an image file as input and outputs the detected and recognized text, even determining the text orientation. This is ideal for hobbyists, educators, or small businesses who want an affordable, offline document scanning solution without relying on cloud services.

Use this if you need to extract text from images and documents on a Raspberry Pi without an internet connection or recurring costs.

Not ideal if you need a pre-packaged, ready-to-use application with a graphical user interface, as this requires some technical setup.
