Back to Nutrition facts table data extraction

Introduction

A team of Microsofties is working on using Microsoft Form Recognizer to extract data from nutrition facts table pictures to pre-populate Open Food Facts' Hunger Game data entry and validation form.

Prototype

Code

Issue to port to V2, with a link to the current prototype code: https://github.com/openfoodfacts/openfoodfacts-hungergames/issues/47

Form recognizer

  • Can we do the form recognizer query on the fly from the page ?
  • Should we do it server side ?
  • We already have an OFF API for extraction nutrition data from text that we can also use.
