Looking forward to 2020 and beyond: BookLiberator

BookLiberator Logo

QuestionCopyright.org had a very quiet 2019, while we took care of some internal infrastructure work. Happily, most of that work is done now. In 2020, our main project is the BookLiberator, but this time without special hardware. It will be a purely software application for smartphones, which are now capable of capturing the requisite high-resolution images and doing on-board computation: page-dewarping, for example, and even some or all of the optical-character recognition (OCR) processing.

The application will be 100% free and open source software, of course, and control will remain with the user, where it belongs.
