Foundations of AI in Microsoft Azure - Episode 7: Optical character recognition

Ever wondered how computers can "read" text from images? In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) with a focus on Azure AI Vision's powerful capabilities. We'll explore how this cutting-edge technology blends computer vision and natural language processing to extract text from everything from scanned documents to handwritten notes.

Join us as we break down the magic behind the Read API, uncovering how machine learning models identify and locate text with incredible accuracy, presented in a logical hierarchy of pages, lines, and words. Whether you're a developer curious about integrating OCR into your applications using REST APIs and SDKs, or simply interested in the no-code convenience of the Azure AI Vision Studio, this episode has something for you. We'll even touch on the essentials of setting up and managing Azure AI resources to get you started on your OCR journey. Tune in to discover how Azure AI Vision is transforming the way we interact with visual information!
