Hello,
I'm wondering if there's any image manipulation done internally by the Vision framework itself, before the text recognition is performed?
I'm asking because I know there's a CIDocumentEnhancer filter that I could apply to the image before passing it over to the VNRecognizeTextRequest. However, I would like to avoid it, if something similar is already done internally.
If no manipulation is done internally, would you recommend performing something like below?
Also, based on my testing, the text recognition request consistently took ~10% longer, when provided with the filtered image vs. the original captured image. Any ideas why?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Thanks!

Code Block let capturedImage = CIImage(cvPixelBuffer: pixelBuffer) let filter = CIFilter(name: "CIDocumentEnhancer") filter?.setValue(capturedImage, forKey: kCIInputImageKey) filter?.setValue(5, forKey: kCIInputAmountKey) let filteredImage = filter?.outputImage
