![]() ![]() Microsoft's marketing team might say that Office Lens tears down the wall between the real world and the virtual world, or they may philosophize about the "internet of things", but Microsoft Office Lens is fundamentally just a very well functioning optical character recognition system. It's a clever little piece of software that's cross compatible with Google and Apple platforms, but it's not the sort of game changer that will exactly set the world on fire. Microsoft Office Lens is the company's way of demonstrating that they can hang. By compressing all of their standard software packages into one interface, they've demonstrated their willingness to subscribe to the software as a service model, bu that can't be accomplished without a reach and ever evolving flow of new technology. Primarily, this can be seen in the move towards Office 360 as a global, cloud-based alternative to the Google suite. For a while, it felt like Microsoft was lagging behind, but recent efforts have shown that the long-living giant still has some life left in it. Despite their more proprietary approach to software and hardware, Apple remains the cool kid with the slick designs and cutting edge approaches to new technology (albeit at a premium you can't expect to pay with a PC), while Google has blurred the line between OS provider and software developer with a wide and expansive suite of cloud-hosted platforms that make much of the packaged operating system software obsolete and begin to transition users away from a local, desktop based interface more towards a global, browser-based approach to how they interact with their computers and their world. Overall Opinion: It would be hard to argue that Microsoft has fallen a bit behind the pack with its competition in the past few years. Why couldn't Lens just asked me where I wanted my file saved in the first place?!? It seems impossible to just simply do a common "Save As" to the hard disk!!!

Instant recognition of area of page limits and skewness correction.Ĭons: Image acquired looks fine in Lens but once opened in pdf reader it is too much blueish. Pros: Instant recognition of area of page limits and skewness correction. Just because of this, I'm looking for an alternative to Lens. Why couldn't Lens just asked me where I wanted my file saved in the first place?!? Very odd. Image acquired looks fine in Lens but once opened in pdf reader it is too much blueish. Overall Opinion: I'm using in a laptop, with Windows 10. ![]()
