FairScan 1.14 improves brightness handling for color documents, with more consistent results and fewer over-bright or under-exposed scans.

I also published a blog post about a closely related question:
"What's a good scan?"

#FairScan #OpenSource #ImageProcessing

FairScan 1.11.0 is out.

It includes:
- a new setting to control export quality
- a new way to report issues with the last captured image

I've also published a short post about the second point: how FairScan can be improved by letting users choose to share scans that don't look good.

Hello Mastodon 👋

I'm an independent software engineer working on FairScan, an open source document scanner for Android.

I write occasionally about both the human and technical sides of the project, including image processing, datasets, and what "respectful software" can mean in practice. I try to keep these posts short and readable, focusing on the problems I face and how I approach them.
