capjamesg has made public a promising tool to read bookshelves for book cataloging. It’s called Open Shelves. He wrote about it more in a post called Photograph a bookshelf, get a list of the book titles.
It’s wonderful to see that a single person can build an interesting computer vision tool. I plan to do this a bit more with my bookshelves with better lighting and more intention – it’s a great start on a great tool. Great job James!
