Image resizing for optical character recognition in portable reading machine

TLDR
A reading machine that operates in various modes including image correction processing is described in this article, where the reading device preprocesses an image for optical character recognition by receiving the image and determining whether text in the image is too large or small for OCR processing by determining that text height falls outside of a range in which OCR software will recognize text in a digitized image.
Abstract
A reading machine that operates in various modes includes image correction processing is described. The reading device pre-processes an image for optical character recognition by receiving the image and determining whether text in the image is too large or small for optical character recognition processing by determining that text height falls outside of a range in which optical character recognition software will recognize text in a digitized image. If necessary the image is resized according to whether the text is too large or too small.
