I have been trying to find an application that can use the camera to scan written notes or parts of text from a text book and convert it to text on the droid and save it as a note file or pdf file.
Basically I want to take notes using the droid without using paper and pencil or taking pictures of the pages since I want to be able to take exerpts.
For example if I have to copy a few definitions from a dictionary I want to just be able to scan each definition and have the droid convert it to text and save it rather than me having to use paper or pencil or take a picture of the entire page ect.
What is the closest app to this? I know there must be one since I've played with the barcode scanner app and the google goggles app which both use the camera to "read" stuff.
Also if I have a bunch of my own written notes that I want to type up, I want to be able to scan it without having to type it up manually ect.
