Camera guide alignment and check deposit system with text extraction

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to perform operations comprising:
• identifying four coordinates corresponding to four corners of a check within a viewfinder of a mobile device;
• generating a main bounding box comprising the check having handwritten or printed characters, wherein the main bounding box is aligned with the four coordinates corresponding to the four corners of a check;
• generating one or more key boxes within the main bounding box, wherein the one or more key boxes each corresponds to different handwritten or printed characters from the check;
• detecting a command to take a picture of the check;
• causing the mobile device to capture a plurality of images of the check responsive to the command, the plurality of images comprising a plurality of key images each corresponding to a different one of the one or more key boxes;
• and
• providing the plurality of key images for processing and depositing the check into an account.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

• identifying four coordinates corresponding to four corners of a check within a viewfinder of a mobile device;
• generating a main bounding box comprising the check having handwritten or printed characters, wherein the main bounding box is aligned with the four coordinates corresponding to the four corners of a check;
• generating one or more key boxes within the main bounding box, wherein the one or more key boxes each corresponds to different handwritten or printed characters from the check;
• detecting a command to take a picture of the check;
• causing the mobile device to capture a plurality of images of the check responsive to the command, the plurality of images comprising a plurality of key images each corresponding to a different one of the one or more key boxes;
• and
• providing the plurality of key images for processing and depositing the check into an account.
