For the next plugin version we add the [Vision.RectifyDocument](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/VisionRectifyDocument.shtml) function for macOS and iOS to detect a document in a picture and rectify this. This is used internally for [DocumentCameraScan](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/component_DocumentCameraScan.shtml) function on iOS, but now can be used independently.

```auto
MBS( "Vision.RectifyDocument"; Image { ; ImageType; FileName } )

```

To give you an example. You may have the picture on the left and use the function to get the picture on the right side.

The function uses machine learning to determinate the picture, process it on machine and provide a new picture. The area with the picture is detected, a transformation matrix is created and a new picture made with the transformation.

This function will help in combination with [Vision.DetectBarcode](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/VisionDetectBarcode.shtml) to get the barcodes, [Vision.RecognizeText](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/VisionRecognizeText.shtml) to get the text or [Vision.ClassifyImage](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/VisionClassifyImage.shtml) to classify the content.

I'm still blown away by things like this.

Can I get all of the hours of my life spent in front of Photoshop rotating, keystoning, and trimming given back to me please?
