    I want to make an app that scans documents

    I've been learning to develop apps for Glass for a short while and I'm continuously looking for new app ideas. Now I've been thinking about an app that can scan documents, books and any other paper.

    Here's the features I've been thinking about:
    • Convert it to text ( OCR )
    • Let you search through the documents
    • Share the documents by email, Evernote or other app


    Now I'm looking for other features for my app. Do you have any ideas ?

    Spell checker? Option to select text using the scroll and modify the document via voice commands?

    It won't be a document editor. Just a scanner and reader

    You're right. Cloud integration is a must. I must read more about it.

    You could also make a companion app for Android or use an existing one and mirror the scanned document on the smartphone or tablet.

    Let us know once you have a working beta. I'd love to give it a try and offer feedback.

    I could see a scanner getting into some serious trouble though, you see it alot on most spy movies and lets face it its coming rather quickly.
