Android Question OCR

[Spacewalker]

Hello,

I need to develop an App that scans Business Cards and does a OCR on it

So the App should do these steps:
(1. Take a photo of a Business Card)
(2. Load this photo into an App)
3. This App does an OCR and should recognize elements like last name, first name, address, postal code, email etc.
(4. create datefile XML/JSON or iDOC format of the recognized data)
(5.upload datafile to SAP CRM)

My problem is step 3: Do an OCR of a photo\JPG

So my question is:

Is there a OCR solution (library etc.) that would allow me to do this?

I know that there are online OCR services like ocrwebservice.com - but I'd need an App that does it on the device

Thanks
Heinz
