Version History of Braille Scanner

1.2.0

September 9, 2022

Thanks for waiting, it's been a while since the last update to Braille Scanner. Changes: - I've made some changes to the Braille table data behind the scenes. - Changed some capitation and buttons titles. - The on-screen interface (Not the Braille tables) now includes localisation for Arabic, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian Bokmal, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese. If you need a language added, please let me know. Fixed: - When using the Tip Jar the spinner would appear and sometimes never clear. This has been fixed.

1.1.1

April 13, 2022

Changes: - When scanning the camera now checks for blurry images. - Added a tip jar, if you're enjoying Braille Scanner and feel like dropping a few spare coins into the tip jar, it would be greatly appreciated. Work in progress: I've started localising the app views. I'm not finished but I've started. Fixed: - Audio crash fixed: When scanning the app would crash if your camera lost and found a document quickly. - Out of bounds crash when viewing a document. Note on the version number, I'm not sure exactly how but I've managed to break the version numbers. This version is 1.1.1 how ever it's really 1.0.2 in disguise.

1.0.1

April 4, 2022

Changes -Added a mute sound button to the camera view. (Number 1 requested feature). Defects fixed: -VoiceOver on the document view. VoiceOver focus would be captured by the toolbar after listening to the document being read out. -Cloudkit usage has been removed. I implemented cloudkit incorrectly and was constantly refreshing data, so I hit my limits very quickly. I've temperately removed cloudkit for the next few app updates. -Reduced app size by removing some unused assets saved in the app.

Description of Braille Scanner

A page of Braille instantly changes to text with Braille Scanner. Using a combination of computer vision to locate the page and Machine Learning to match Braille to letters, Braille Scanner can show English letters above the Braille. The matched text can be copied for use in other applications, or spoken via Text-To-Speech. Braille Scanner is an excellent tool to help check the written word when learning to type Braille. - A teacher can use it to help check work in a classroom situation. - Proof read an assignment before sending it for marking. - Transcribe old documents before they become difficult to read. Of the various types of Braille in use, Braille Scanner currently recognises documents written in Unified English Braille (UEB Grade 1) commonly referred to as uncontracted Braille. Braille Scanner has been trained to recognise single pages of paper. Signs and other objects with Braille may not be recognised. Help to improve Braille Scanner by using the “Report incorrect Braille” option after scanning the sign or object. The image will be used to expand and refine the Machine Learning model that is used by Braille Scanner. Feature listing: - Auto document detection and scan - Paper page distortion correction - On device Machine Learning - Braille conversion using Unified English Braille (UEB Grade 1) - Text-To-Speech - Export converted Braille as text - Export Braille characters - 17 different app icons Braille Scanner is available for free - there are no subscriptions or in-app purchase items, and no registration is required. Data stays on the device used, and Braille Scanner has zero analytics data gathering. If you have any questions, feedback or feature requests I’d love to hear from you. I’m an indie developer working on this app and all feedback is welcome.
