Considering human health, it is
very important for individuals to select the products they will use correctly
in order to reduce the effect caused by any allergic or chronic health
condition. In addition, health problems caused by nutrients are increasing day
by day. Thus, people should carefully check the components and contents of
their purchased products in case of any health problem. In this study, it was
aimed to determine the nutrients that could trigger some health problems
related to the consumption of dairy products and to prevent the consumption of
these nutrients. For this purpose, an application which is user friendly and
easy to use in daily life has been developed by using image processing based
techniques. The mobile application, called "Dairy Products", was
developed using Tesseract's Tess-two library on Android Studio with Java
language. It was aimed to perform content analysis of dairy products by
application developed using Optical character recognition (OCR). The objective
of OCR system for general purpose is to convert scanned or photographed pictured
format documents into corresponding usable symbolic representation. With this
application, the dairy products that should not be consumed as a result of the
content analysis can be determined specifically for the person.
