YomiNinja

Open-source OCR overlay tool that extracts text from any visual content for instant dictionary lookups.

Desktopfree

YomiNinja is an open-source OCR tool that extracts text from any visual content — images, games, video — and overlays it on the original, so language learners can instantly look words up with pop-up dictionaries like Yomitan without leaving what they're reading or watching. It's built for learners consuming media where the text itself can't normally be selected or copied.
