Systems and methods for generating search results based on optical character recognition techniques and machine-encoded text

A system comprising:

• a memory storage device storing instructions for generating search result data based on machine-encoded text data;
• and
• one or more processors configured to execute the instructions for generating search result data based on machine-encoded text data by performing the steps of:
• receiving, from a user device an image comprising text;
• converting the text into machine-encoded text;
• rendering a geometrical bounding element comprising the machine-encoded text;
• receiving, from the user device, a search request comprising a selection of at least a portion of the machine-encoded text corresponding to the geometrical bounding element;
• identifying media and text data corresponding to the selected portion of the machine encoded text;
• and
• transmitting, to the user device, the identified media and text data to the user device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium for generating search result data based on machine-encoded text data, the method comprising:

• at least one storage medium with instructions thereon for generating search result data based on machine-encoded text data;
• and
• at least one processor that executes the instructions to perform a method comprising:
• receiving, from a user device an image comprising text;
• converting the text into machine-encoded text;
• rendering a geometrical bounding element comprising the machine-encoded text;
• receiving, from the user device, a search request comprising a selection of at least a portion of the machine-encoded text corresponding to the geometrical bounding element;
• identifying media and text data corresponding to the selected portion of the machine encoded text;
• and
• transmitting, to the user device, the identified media and text data to the user device.
