With the rapid advancement of the mobile technologies, we now use mobile applications in every aspect of our life. At present when we find some useful information from business cards, newspapers, books, flyers and so on we do not usually note them rather we capture the image using mobile devices. However, the texts obtained from these images need to be processed further to make our task unequivocal. In this paper, we present an android application framework that can process the texts obtained from an image to get contact information from business cards as well as event information from magazines, posters or flyers. Google Cloud Vision API is used to retrieve the text from the captured image and OpenNLP to extract useful information from the obtained text. The experimental results show that our application is effective and efficient in terms of accuracy as well as processing time.
