InkCapture

InkCapture is software that changes the possibilities of digitizing historical handwritten documents. Handwritten historical documents, books and documents have so far been mostly scanned without the possibility of easily obtaining textual information from them. Not only researchers were reliant on hours to read hundreds of pages of documents without the search support that is common for printed documents.

InkCapture aims to change this and, by using modern methods of machine learning and computer vision, to obtain information from handwritten documents that will revolutionize the search capabilities of historical documents.
