Util::YandexRecognize - Captcha Recognition
Overview of the scraper
Used as a plug-in component in other scrapers where it may be necessary to solve simple image captchas.
The peculiarity of this scraper is that it uses Yandex Translator's capabilities for solving. The accuracy of the solution is low, but this is compensated by its freeness and relatively higher speed.
Use cases
- Captcha recognition in scrapers where it is optionally or necessarily required to solve captchas to get results
- Captcha recognition in custom JS scrapers
- Recognition of small text data from images (e.g., phone numbers)
