This project has been passed down through three capstone teams. Over the years, we have developed a prototyped full-stack application currently being utilized to advise jobs in HP's industrial printing presses
What are we doing now?
We are currently furthering our research in the currently implemented PDF analysis algorithms, expanding the range of test use cases and looking into improving the behavior of the algorithms and in the far future, using this prototype as a model for training machine-learning algorithms in image analysis for this purpose as well
We are currently implementing two general use cases for this application:
Input the PDF file being printed and the type of paper being used
Input the PDF file being printed and the speed of the printing
In both cases, the application should be able to analyze the PDF's and output the recommended printing settings and paper type if necessary with text explanation included. Additionally, the application should come with translation capabilities and maintain a history of past jobs as well.
