Build your own document scanner with OpenCV Python
Video DEMO and TUTORIAL : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PV0uxIfy_-A
The script takes an image as input and then scans the document from the image by applying few image processing techniques and gives the output image with scanned effect
Initially we need to resize the images so OpenCV can handle it and then the following functions are applied
- Guassian Blur to smoothen image.
- Canny Edges to detect the edges.
- Find contours and boundary of the page
- Map the end points of contours to 800 * 800 window
- Apply perspective trasform to get scanned or bird eye view of the image.
I was BORED :/
pip install opencv-python
