LINE Business Card Bot Adds Dual-Side Recognition with Gemini

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A LINE bot for business card OCR now asks users if there's a back side, then merges front and back data using Gemini. The bot stores front image temporarily and waits up to 5 minutes for the back side before combining both into one record. This eliminates duplicate entries and manual cleanup for users with bilingual cards.

Meridian48 take
Clever UX design solves a real pain point, but the reliance on Gemini for merging may raise cost and latency concerns for high-volume use.
