InftyReader is an OCR application that automatically translates image-based math content into LaTeX, MathML, and Microsoft Word 2007 (XML).
InftyReader incorporates the use of three OCR engines. The first is InftyReader's own OCR engine which has been designed to recognize scientific and mathematical symbols in formulae. The second and third OCR engines are from the Toshiba Corporation (ExpressReaderPro) and MediaDrive Corporation (WinReader). The ExpressReaderPro and WinReader OCR engines operate simultaneously in order to improve the recognition results of characters appearing in ordinary text areas.
InftyReader can save Offices of Students Disability Services hundreds (if not thousands of hours) of hours currently being spent manually retyping and editing math text books and PDF files into accessible formats.
