Hanping Chinese Camera OCR Description

Save time doing dictionary lookups with Chinese OCR! Simply point your camera at some Chinese text to get all the English definitions. No need to even touch the screen!

PLEASE READ THIS FIRST: this app gives the dictionary definitions of Chinese words in the text, not whole sentence translations (although there is a button to quickly show the text in Google Translate popup). Therefore, this app is suited to those who are studying Chinese rather than those who are looking for a language-survival tool.

PLEASE READ THIS ALSO: when first using this app, it's tempting to try it out by pointing the camera at Chinese text on a computer screen. However, this is NOT supported because the Moire effect means the image is distorted in a way that cannot be used by the recognition engine. So please point the camera at Chinese text in the real world (e.g. in books) or load images (such as screenshots captured by the device). Generally speaking, you should prefer to use the Image mode (not Live mode) and, on some devices/screens, even the Moire effect can be mitigated by taking a photo with your device camera app and then sharing the image with Hanping Camera.

This app is compatible with our Mandarin and Cantonese dictionary apps.

Comments about Hanping Chinese Camera OCR Android Version

This is a must have app for learning Chinese with intermediate fluency. I take a picture of the Chinese characters I want to learn throughout the day, then at night I use this app to figure out the meaning and pronunciation, then I practice reading and writing. It's so much faster than using a dictionary to look up the characters! After using the app a while I know which fonts and styles it supports and so I take pictures that it will recognize. No bubble letters, unusual fonts, handwriting.

it could be me not knowing how to use this properly, but it recognizes some characters sometimes.what is funny, is it not picking up simple ones like 人, but will snag 您 with many strokes. i wish i could show a picture to illustrate. but, even for the inaccuracy, i can see something like this being a life saver abroad. you'll see what words it thinks it is, so its not as though it's spitting back sentences with no context. it will never confuse you more than help.

Failed in many cases to decipher characters in camera mode. It works well if characters are very clear and the text color is rich. Apps does not really meeting my requirements and expectations. Need to improve further.
