Features Hanping Chinese Camera: Chinese OCR
Save time doing dictionary lookups with Chinese OCR!
Simply point your camera at some Chinese text to get all the English definitions.
No need to even touch the screen!This app is compatible with our Mandarin and Cantonese dictionary apps.If youre not satisfied, for any reason, within 30 days you get a full refund, period, no questions asked.
We dont want your money if youre not amazingly happy.PLEASE READ THIS FIRST: this app gives the dictionary definitions of Chinese words in the text, not whole sentence translations (although there is a button to quickly show the text in Google Translate popup).
Therefore, this app is suited to those who are studying Chinese rather than those who are looking for a language-survival tool.PLEASE READ THIS ALSO: when first using this app, its tempting to try it out by pointing the camera at Chinese text on a computer screen.
However, this is NOT supported because the Moire effect means the image is distorted in a way that cannot be used by the recognition engine.
So please point the camera at Chinese text in the real world (e.g.
in books) or load images (such as screenshots captured by the device).Features:

"It's a great app, from my experience the OCR provided by HanPing and Pleco's OCR are all at the same level!! ππ"
Vicky Zhen
"Tested a few similar apps before deciding on this one. Works pretty well on standard fonts as long once you get the hang of the optimal zoom level. I also own the Popup app for >2 years and it has been a great app."

"Thanks for the assistance.. My apologies for the fisrt review. This apps rather helpful as i expected.. Thanks.. Love both han pin lite and this camera version.. Remember to put the red line on the characters..."
Mohd Shubanthirio Mohd Suhaimi
"This is a must have app for learning Chinese with intermediate fluency. I take a picture of the Chinese characters I want to learn throughout the day, then at night I use this app to figure out the meaning and pronunciation, then I practice reading and writing. It's so much faster than using a dictionary to look up the characters! After using the app a while I know which fonts and styles it supports and so I take pictures that it will recognize. No bubble letters, unusual fonts, handwriting."
Kelly Wiggins
"Failed in many cases to decipher characters in camera mode. It works well if characters are very clear and the text color is rich. Apps does not really meeting my requirements and expectations. Need to improve further."
