Scanning albums is not an easy task, since the extraction of actual photographs within scans is usually very tedious. This tool allows you to scan as much as you can fit into your scanner and then semi-automatedly extract the contained photographs. The tool also allows to extract scans of multiple single photographs (i.e. without album) Find a full documentation here: http://dominik-ruess.de/scannerExtract/ Note: The scanning itself is the most time consuming part. Maker sure you optimize that process. (see some hints on the link above.) Hint: **I NEED YOUR DATA**. If you have scans which won't be recognized well give me these (If they're not too personal etc - I won't use it for anything else than to improve this software).

The purpose of this library is to offer a set of tools to be used in document image analysis with a focus on questionaire and survey document images.

Allows to use a digital camera as a scanner by removing distortion and effects of uneven lighting from a set of photos. A picture of a white sheet of paper can be used as a reference for calibration. Outputs corrected JPEG files and optionally a PDF document combining all pictures.
