EZLink

Ever gotten a really important person's business card, intended to contact them, and lost it? This will fix that.

EZLink utilizes image recognition to extract a name and phone number from a physical object, such as a business card. It then creates a virtual contact card using processed data, and finally uses Flask back-end to serve .vcf files (phone contact file) to the Twilio API to be sent back to the user.

USAGE

  • Get a business card at a career fair or by other means.
  • Take a picture of the card and text it to EZLink's easy to reach phone number: (872) 240-5571 .
  • EZLink will respond with a contact card, allowing you to easily store the contact.

BUILD/INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

  • Mac/OS
    • Make free Twilio and AWS accounts.
    • Provide the respective API keys in files called twilio_credentials.py and aws_credentials.py
    • pip install -r requirements.txt to install all dependencies.
    • A set up script for a server will be available soon. Until then, our server will be up, allowing you to use our APIs.

INTERFACES

  • Everything is done by sending a text message.
  • No installation, no registration, access from any phone.
