Based on Tencent Cloud's industry-leading deep learning technology, Tencent Cloud OCR is capable of intelligently recognizing words on images and converting them into editable text. It can recognize printed text and handwriting, meeting the text recognition needs in different scenarios.
By using Serverless Framework Component and OCR SDK, you can quickly deploy a general OCR application based on COS + API + SCF, which contains the following key components:

• Serverless RESTful API: you can use the Express framework constructed by SCF and API Gateway to implement RESTful API.
• Serverless static website: the frontend hosts React static pages in COS.
• COS: you can create a bucket to store target images.

Prerequisites

• You have installed Node.js (v8.6 or above; v10.0 or above is recommended).
• You have activated OCR.
