Could you build this?

Partial Creating a generic iOS camera and chat app is straightforward, but achieving visually precise real-time handwriting recognition, math OCR, and desk-view camera perspective rectification requires specialized computer vision engineering.

What it would actually take: A production app requires an iOS frontend (Swift/SwiftUI, AVFoundation, Metal) coupled with low-latency vision pipelines (CoreML/Vision or multimodal streaming to a backend). The hard part is real-time perspective correction for Desk View camera angles combined with step-by-step mathematical reasoning models that can parse ambiguous student handwriting without latency. This demands specialized expertise in mobile computer vision, spatial geometry transformations, and fine-tuned educational reasoning LLMs.

Discussion

3 comments analyzed.

Concerns raised: Perspective correction needs to be more reliable

Feature requests: Multilingual support (Mandarin, French, Spanish, Korean), Mandarin language support
