Applying super resolution for quality improvement of ocr processing

A system comprising:

• one or more data processors;
• and
• one or more storage devices storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more data processors, cause the one or more data processors to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a plurality of images, each image depicting same object;
• selecting a first image from the plurality of images;
• estimating motion of elements of the object in the first image relative to images in the plurality of images;
• based on results of motion estimation, performing motion compensation of elements of the one or more objects using the first image for the images in the plurality of images;
• accumulating signal from the at least some compensated images into the first image resulting in a high resolution image;
• and
• performing object recognition using the resulting high resolution image.

A computer-readable storage medium having machine instructions stored therein, the instructions being executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a plurality of images, each image depicting same object;
• selecting a first image from the plurality of images;
• estimating motion of elements of the object in the first image relative to images in the plurality of images;
• based on results of motion estimation, performing motion compensation of elements of the one or more objects using the first image for the images in the plurality of images;
• accumulating signal from the compensated images into the first image resulting in a high resolution image;
• and
• performing object recognition using the resulting high resolution image.
