Re: [Health] grasp data from paper and report of it with proteus, how?

[Tom Blecher]

Hello Edgar,

nice to meet you.

Excuse me for waiting so much time, I was some days off.

 

To your questions:

-Tutorials: There are mainly two tutorials on proteus, afaik, one video from 2013 Tryton conference to be found on their hp.

And one in the readme file of the package. And yes: After long chatting I understood that the only feasible way of accessing is by the xml-rpc interface, searching by tryton chat logs will give some hints in case of question.

-On Proteus:

Proteus turned out to be rather a tryton program, which is hardly used- but -this is to remark - therefore the even more necessary: Tryton fullfills by that something that FreeCAD calls mirroring, at least some basic mirroring (always being able of switching between non-interactive and interactive user access)

Moreover: Proteus seems to be used for inner testing purposes fortunately.

-On ocr:

-The typical solution in a hospital information system and archiving system in an Austrian hospital nowadays would be:
- make a (paper) copy of the medical report that the patient provides for the doctor and put it into the records

 

Thank you for that information!

So "put into" means that they have in case of doubt: hand work.?!

So I it is to say, I am working (searching) on an ocr-solution.There are some free ocr tools around. And I have read a post from 2010 where they say xsane free software had already some ocr integrated.

 

The question marks above indicates that I hardly can believe that yet. In all these bureaus of 2015's world they, they do not use OCR, yet?

 

On the report:

I wanted to build some hello-World script with it. So the report could be an arbitrary sentence "<Owner of the place read from database of gnuhospital> greets: Hello World", located in the middle of a page.

 

 

 

So if you or else someone knows of a preferably non-interactive way of such an hello world report, I would be glad, for a few lines of script, anyway.

 

On the conversation:

>I call this tool-chain or work flow and how could then a tool chain of data-on-paper-to-computer-data been
>sketched and how could its availabilitity hold for being later or now discussed on.

Yes, this woul be really cool.

>On that I would like to open a conversation.
I want to join the conversation ;)

 

 

So what might one believe: are there any sense and_ chance that such an OCR-Tool-Chain will be integrated in (especially free) future development?

Are there maybe risks? Such as waste of effort? Would it be a big step forward against (non-free) competitors? Other relevant aspects?

Opinions?

 

Regards
