Simulating image capture

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to simulating the capture of images. In some embodiments, a document and a camera are simulated using a three-dimensional modeling engine. In certain embodiments, a plurality of images are captured of the simulated document from a perspective of the simulated camera, each of the plurality of images being captured under a different set of simulated circumstances within the three-dimensional modeling engine. In some embodiments, a model is trained based at least on the plurality of images which determines at least a first technique for adjusting a set of parameters in a separate image to prepare the separate image for optical character recognition (OCR).
