LBalance vs Open Note Scanner
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
LBalance
LBalance is an app that uses the acceleration sensors of the device to move graphical objects on the screen. LBalance can also be used as a protractor or spirit level. Several graphical representations have been implemented. Beside own creations there are layouts inspired from the layout of known similar apps. The different layouts can be switched by the user. Also exists an overview display for direct selection. The calibration of the angle display follows the pattern of simple apps of this kind and applies to each main orientation of the device separately.
Open Note Scanner
With Open Note Scanner you can capture documents, handwritten notes, arts, shopping receipts, etcetera. It will automatically adjust the image aspect, contrast and save it. It will allow browsing, view and share the scanned documents. It also supports the automatic scan of preformatted pages with QR Code and action indicators. PDF file with the pages are available on the application website, in the releases section. In order to work, Open Note Scanner needs to have access to the OpenCV Manager application installed. If it could not find it, it will offer to download it from GitHub or Play Store. It is also possible to manually install it from the OpenCV SDK for Android, available on https://opencv.org/
