How to scan a thing from a iphone application - iphone

i want to know how to scan a paper from a iphone cam and i need to read the data on the paper later i want to store the data...
is it possible..?
please give me a thought...
Thanks..

Well, it it very much possible.
I am not sure really how do it, but you should definitly have a look at OCR.
Try to get a look at Google Googles in the official Google iPhone app, this can actually read text off a picture you take, even at an angle.

I've found this, http://maniacdev.com/2011/08/example-tesseract-optical-character-recognition-ocr-demo-with-source/ i've not tried the example yet, but i'm going to do that, i hope will help you.

Stream screen from Mac to iPhone

I want to create a program that stream the screen of my Mac to my iPhone. Kind of like it is done in Liveview. I'm still relatively new to Objective-C, so I don't know where to start to make such an application.
It seems you have to have something installed both on your Mac and on your iPhone, but how would you actually stream the screen of your Mac to your iPhone?
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Update of question
Thanks for the answers. Still seems a bit vague to me and I'm not sure I really need full video streaming. Implementing also seems to be a pain, since there aren't any real good resources for it.
Taking a screenshot every second or so and streaming it to my iPhone as an image, would actually be ok. I've figured out how to stream an image with Bonjour from my Mac to my iPhone.
The screenshot I need to send to my iPhone is of the design that I'm currently working on in photoshop. I've figured out how to take a screenshot and how to get a list of all open windows. But how to make a snapshot of an open PSD-file, I don't know.
Any suggestions on that?
It's a very big subject, so not really something that can be tackled with a simple response. However, I would suggest that one approach would be to write a VNC client for the iPhone. Indeed, this open source exists that's probably worth a look:

I would go with the frequent screenshot approach. You would prepare a screenshot of the item you want to transmit and then use some easy library like my DTBonjour to transmit these objects via WiFi to iOS clients.

If you were using layer-backing then you could also use the renderLayer... methods which would also include sub-layers.
The most fidelity you'd get from encoding the individual screen shots in a streaming video format, though this is way more work.
This is called RFB (or RDP), and most remote-screen applications use RFB/RDP protocol and libraries which implement it.

XCode Jigsaw Puzzle

I am trying to create a jigsaw puzzle app for iOS. From my searches through the internet, there really aren't any tutorials on the subject. Does anyone know of any links to good tutorials or tutorials on games that anyone knows of? Thanks. By the way, iOS4 would be appreciated.
Use Cocos2D: http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/
Relevant for jigsaw pieces: http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/6363
I am also thinking that divided original image with masking but it might be bad idea for us and also complicated to manage it. So For user who is beginner for jigsaw puzzle then This is the best question/answer
and you will also find source code from git.
Please hats off this man who solve your problem. I know this should be not an answer but should be comment but If I will put it as comment then may be use who have problem with jigsaw puzzle he/she can not find it easily so. I am putting it as answer.

Framework/Component for iOS

I would like create a plug and play component.(i.e)I like to create a small component/Framework which can be used in many iPhone apps.For example GPS location tracking ,Chat functionalities like that.Each and everyone should be separate component which can be integrated with any apps.
Can anyone guide me with things to be done for achieve this.Any tutorials or links.
Thanks!!

how to do image morphing as in FatBooth app - iPhone

I want to build a similar app as fatbooth and want some ideas on how to do this. I googled for Image morphing in iPhone but didn't find anything. Should I use some server side language to morph Image?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks
Saurabh
The only language you can really use is C# or c++. the maths is very complicated although I am sure you can get a book or two that cover image manipulation.
I don't know if there is an open source morphing framework, but that is your best option - it doesn't have to be specific to the iPhone, but the integration will be hard.
I don't know what you mean about server side, unless there is a server you know of that does it and you want a wrapper around it
For starters, take a look at displacement mapping: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/mapping/
Basically, you use grayscale images to bloat/shrink/squeeze/etc parts of a person's face. I made an app called FaceCraze which had to implement a poor man's FatBooth as part of the face transformation, and I used grayscale images very similar to the examples in http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/mapping/#spherical
edit: You can use the ImageMagick library in your iOS apps too: Link

integrating camera and email

I want to develop an application that will automatically send an email as soon as an image is captured by the camera.
can anybody suggest some ideas regarding this???
Really easy to do. The
Iphone developer's cookbook has some "recipes" that will get you pointed in the right direction on how to do this.
