paused videos get OCR'd into text

First Steps

  • Get Image of Paused Video
    • Pull html
    • Find relevant video element (with jQuery?)
    • If is paused, turn element into image
    • An alternative to scraping the html for the video element would be to accept some sort of user input like a user-defined area (a click-and-drag square).
  • Apply OCR to image
    • Tesseract.js is a possibility
    • Though tenserflow would be more versatile and, of course, more fun/cooler
  • Output text from image
