LiveEdgeDetection is an Android document detection library built on top of OpenCV. It scans documents from camera live mode and allows you to adjust crop using the detected 4 edges and performs perspective transformation of the cropped image.
It works best with a dark background.
The source code of OpenCV is here https://git.mxtracks.info/opencv/openCV-android-sdk The code was too big for github, but the main problem was jitpack.io was not able to build jitpack/jitpack.io#4119
This library is available in JitPack.io repository. To use it, make sure to add the below inside root build.gradle file
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
and add the repository's url to the app's build.gradle file.
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.hannesa2:LiveEdgeDetection:$latestVersion'
}
Out of the box it uses OpenCV.
- Start startActivityForResult from your activity
startActivityForResult(new Intent(this, ScanActivity.class), REQUEST_CODE);
- Get a file path for cropped image on onActivityResult
String filePath = data.getExtras().getString(ScanConstants.SCANNED_RESULT);
Bitmap baseBitmap = ScanUtils.decodeBitmapFromFile(filePath, ScanConstants.IMAGE_NAME);
- Display the image using TouchImageView
<com.ortiz.touchview.TouchImageView
android:id="@+id/scanned_image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="center" />
