Technical Architecture & Execution Mechanics
Neural Network Optical Character Recognition
The OCR engine converts image pixels into grayscale matrices, performs Otsu thresholding and line finding, and runs LSTM neural network sequence classification inside a dedicated Web Worker thread.
Text_Output = await TesseractWorker.recognize(Image_Blob, Language_Code)Technical Limitations & Operational Constraints
- Blurry, low-contrast, or extremely cursive handwritten text may have lower recognition accuracy.
- Processing time scales with image resolution and device CPU capability.

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
Is my scanned document uploaded to any server for OCR recognition?
No. Where supported, tool inputs and images are processed locally inside your web browser using WebAssembly. Your images are not uploaded to remote servers.
Can I extract text from multi-language documents?
Yes, you can select the primary language model (such as English, Spanish, German, French, or Hindi) before running extraction.
Are my files uploaded, analyzed, or stored on NexVaani servers?
Where supported, tool inputs and files are processed locally inside your web browser using WebAssembly and HTML5 Canvas. Your files are not uploaded to NexVaani file-processing servers.
