For my server backend, I used a #python script to handle the requests.

Basically, it makes use of two components:

#CV2 (open computer vision). This is Swiss Army-knife for image manipulation. I use it to reduce an image to a b/w format which only contains the text. Ideal for a quick copy

#imagemagick to apply sigmoidal contrast, removing most problems due to poor illumination

#OCRmyPDF to make it more convenient to work with the scanned sheet

Any examples of using SIFT (or SURF or ORB) in #OpenCV to retrieve similar images from a DB? All the code I see is just comparing two images’ features at a time. If you have 1,000 images and you want the closest, what do you do? #cv2 #image_search

Yay, I think I've made some significant progress on detecting the differences between two images with #opencv2, and extracting the contours to #SVG paths. :D

Now all that would be left is to merge the paths and the (bitmap) images into the template SVG I got. :)
