Hi guys,
I have developed a method to find the characters present in an image file.This technology can be used to improve image search in search engines and also in the desktop.As per my knowledge search engines give image search results based on the file name and the text in the page containing it.This method can produce improved results.So please tell your ideas of selling this technology to the software giants like Google,Microsoft or Yahoo and how much in $ will they buy this technology.Hope you guys encourage me.
Thanks in advance
