# OpenCV Demos

**Character Recognition**

*Environment Setup*

* Download & Install OpenCV 3.0.0

* Download & Install EmguCV, the OpenCV wrapper libs for .NET, from here.

* Set a system-wide variable pointing to the EmguCV install dir, for example

``` EMGU_ROOT=C:\bin\Emgu```


You can do this via **System Preferences/Advanced Settings**


* Expand the variable *PATH*, which is in the same settings window, with

```%EMGU_ROOT%\bin\x64```


This entry is needed because the app will automatically search for **cvextern.dll** located in this directory.


* Open the solution file and start the app (Notice: *this is an x64 app*)

* Load one of the available images from the **Assets** folder (these are simple invoice documents)

* Click on Analyze and wait for the OCR-task to complete.

*Example*

*There's a second app which is currently in development. No real OCR there, only a few tests with loading images and (de)serializing them.*
