Atalasoft MobileImage is an SDK designed for capturing an image with a mobile device - both iOS and Android.  If you need to take a picture of a document, need that document cleaned and made as clear as possible, and then sent to a downstream process, MobileImage would be a great fit.

 

MobileImage has 3 main parts; Camera Capture, Image processing with eVRS, and Barcode Reading

 

Here are a few use cases for MobileImage:

A delivery driver or remote worker needs to send in invoices or receipts from their daily activity.  Rather than waiting until the end of the day to send these documents in; with MobileImage the worker can send these documents in as they receive them to reduce delays and possible errors.

A second use case is expediting sales order forms.  In this case a traveling salesperson can meet with customers, fill out an order form and then instead of waiting to manually scan or fax the order forms in when they get back to the office, they can use MobileImage and be sent directly into an order fulfillment system as soon as the order form is filled out reducing errors and delays while at the same time increasing customer satisfaction.

A third use case would be Customer Onboarding for Banks, Insurance Companies, Legal Documents, Government agencies - any organization or process that requires documents to be sent from the customer to an institution to move an application or request forward.

MobileImage controls and API efficiently capture quality images using a mobile camera

• Camera Steady - MobileImage uses the built-in accelerometer to increase stability when capturing an image.
• Automatic or Manual Page Detection - Use controls to automatically detect an image, or allow manual selection.
• Image Review - MobileImage allows users to review and edit an image before continuing to other processes
• An API for customized behavior and validation of capture

Patented Image Capture Controls

• Complete control over the capture of documents and images with UI controls
• Fewer retakes: choice of photo or video mode to capture your document image. Automatically eliminate issues with blur, jitter, and shifting
• Get a perfect image - the first time, every time - ensuring data can be extracted properly for superior results and satisfied users

Some included UI controls:

• Clear capture of optimum images
• Automatic lighting
• Flash
• Torch Mode to prevent sudden light sources from over-exposing
• Auto-Detect
• Developer controlled focus areas

MobileImage uses eVRS technology to automatically clean up images captured by the camera or stored on the mobile device.

• Image Perfection - Autorotate, crop, and clean images
• Artifact Removal - Remove highlighting, hole punches, specks, or other imperfections on a page
• Specify compression and filetype - Save an optimized image as a Tiff, JPG, or PNG

Patented Image Perfection Controls

• Results in easier readability downstream and higher OCR rates
• Less manual processing and a better app experience
• On-device image perfection: process and send images that are only 30-50 KB in size, instead of 3-5 MB

UI Controls for Image Processing

Auto controls available to the developer through patented eVRS image perfection tools:

• Deskew/Crop
• Orientation
• Scaling
• DPI mapping/resolution
• Thresholding
• Image normalization
• Noise removal

MobileImage provides two options for reading barcodes: use the camera to recognize a barcode in real-time, or read barcodes from a stored image.

• Real Time Barcode Reading -- Scan a barcode and return results without capturing an image.
• Barcode Extraction - MobileImage can read multiple barcodes from a captured image.

UI Control for Barcode Reading provides:

• Real-Time barcode capture UI
• When camera is pointed at a readable barcode
• Barcode is detected
• Information is returned to application with checksum
• Supported real-time barcodes include
  • CODE93
  • DATAMATRIX
  • CODE39
