Project Status

Introduction

This project is a Chrome extension designed to scan Google Form questions, retrieve options, and send the data to a backend for processing. It currently supports text-based question and option extraction. Future updates aim to improve functionality and usability, especially for handling image-based content.

Current Limitations

  • Text-only Support: Currently, the extension only extracts questions and options in text format. Image-based questions are not yet supported.
  • OCR Dependency: Although a backend has been developed for reading text in images using OCR, this API is not yet integrated into the extension. Processing is limited to text inputs.

Future Scope

  1. Direct Image Processing without OCR:

    • Enable direct image processing with Gemini AI, bypassing OCR. This will allow the extension to handle diagrams or data-rich images that OCR might not process accurately.

  2. Enhanced Gemini API Integration:

    • Support for Gemini AI to receive both text and image inputs directly from the extension for more dynamic answer generation.

  3. Improved UI/UX Features:

    • Additional settings and feedback options within the extension to improve user experience.

Known Issues

  • Parsing Complex Question Formats: Certain complex question layouts or non-standard text formats may not be accurately parsed by the extension at this stage.
  • Occasional Performance Lags: The extension may experience slight delays when handling a large number of questions.

Vision and Roadmap

Our long-term vision is to create a robust Chrome extension that provides seamless question and answer processing for Google Forms, handling both text and image inputs. Below is a high-level roadmap:

  1. Phase 1 - Text-Based Extraction (Current Phase)

    • Support text-based question and option extraction.
    • Initial Gemini API integration for answer generation.

  2. Phase 2 - Image Processing with OCR

    • Integrate backend API for OCR-based text extraction from images.

  3. Phase 3 - Direct Image Processing without OCR

    • Allow Gemini API to directly process images for answer generation, supporting diagrams and data-rich images.

  4. Phase 4 - User Experience Enhancements

    • Optimize performance, add customization options, and enhance the UI/UX.

This roadmap outlines the planned progression and upcoming features for the project. Stay tuned for updates!
