AI-Powered Document Redaction System (OCR + OpenCV)
I built an AI-based privacy protection system using Python, OpenCV, and PaddleOCR to automatically detect and mask sensitive data such as Student IDs and Names.
Main Features:
1. It locates predefined regions in exam sheets, extracts text using OCR
2. It securely redacts private information with a red overlay. The system works even on low-quality images, making it ideal for universities, HR, and legal teams.
3. Automatic ID & name detection OCR-based text recognition Coordinate-based region tracking Redaction with privacy masking Works on scanned & camera images Batch-ready processing
