Hi all this a s/w called CardScanner you can input phone numbers from business cards or advertisement boards by just taking pictures of those numbers. The phone numbers are automatically extracted from the pictures and you can directly dial a number or send a message to this number. You can also add the extracted phone number into your contacts.
You can see the viewfinder and the benchmark line, which show you the image of phone numbers to be captured.
Make sure that the benchmark line is floated on the phone number to be recognized and try to adjust the phone camera to ensure the phone number is moved to the middle part of the benchmark line.
After the adjustment of the phone camera position, press Option->Recognize or down of the Navi-Key to start the recognition.
The recognized phone number is displayed on the edit box. You can check the phone number and correct it if necessary. You can also press Retry to discard the current number and restart capture procedure.
Press Select to select operations: Dialling, Add to Contacts and Write Message.
Note:
(1). Make sure to capture phone number pictures according to the focus of the macro lens, i.e., 5 cm.
(2). Do not open other applications that use the Camera when the CardScanner is running.

nice app.
Is there any similar app for barCOde...??

Not to use on 6260, resolution to low. maybe on 1Mpix phones

More luck...

Nice app... think the time taken to do this i can manually key the phone number into the phone...

CardScanner screenshots...

btw...i'm been asking this question for a long time..
how to take screenshot using 7610? tks a million

Try this!!

I use FExplorer 1.11 (Options\Tools\Turn ScreenShot ON/OFF) --> 'pencil' + '0' to capture.

Card Scanner is not compatible with my SX1. Any SX1 users managed to make it work?

Anybody who manages to use this aspp? I'm trying to scan numbers with my 6630, but it never recognises any numbers. From time to time it suggests something wrong.

What do I do wrong?

Same problem with the bar code scanner... sad..could be very useful!

its like OCR on you pc when you use a scanner to say transfer a letter and then edit it on your pc sometime it just dosen't work but if you keep trying you can still get good result.

yeah wat abt barcode scanner

well does in take the correct stuff......i will try
i think apps like this makes the smartphone more powerful in todays market...

thanks for d share.

i argee with ronitvohra the smartphone is the way to why carry 3 or 4 gadets when my phone can play all the music i need play games play videos, and with apps like this scan as well (i have by the way a 1gm card which costs less than £40)

I read here that on 6630 this app isn't working since the recognition isn't valid.
But on the other phones? If it's like barcode one the pic should be softened but why?
Maybe it's a sort of interpolation? Like when taking pictures, the images are softened but once the shutter has been pressed and a few time of processing, the image appears sharper than before.

What to do? Only hope in new improved software versions? :(

does this app actually work because i dont think it does

any feedback on 6630? has someone try on it?

Good job mad...this's app what i looking for !!

It works perfectly on 6680 and 7610...

Wat the hell is that? Look Cool!!

The add is good, but cannot recognize the number.
I try to shot 6-8 number, like 12345678 and it give me 11131 shot again n All kind of number come out. ? ? ?
