How to read a Bosnian sign or whiteboard from a photo with Lilly

Point a camera at a sign and see its English translation drawn over the photo.

Who it is forA visitor or intern in Bosnia who needs to understand a sign, notice, or whiteboard right away.

The problemSigns and boards in Bosnian are unreadable without the language, and you need the meaning on the spot.

The outcomeA photo with each text region's English translation overlaid on it.

What you need first

  • Python 3.12 and uv for the local install, or a browser for the live demo
  • Internet access for the first model fetch; the README says nothing reaches the network after fetch_models.py finishes
  • Optional: a microphone for speech and a camera for photographs

Steps

  1. Open the live demo at safak11-lilly-api.hf.space in its own browser tab, especially on a phone
  2. Allow camera access when the page asks
  3. Point the camera at the sign and wait for the regions to appear
  4. Read each region's translation over the sign and tap the correction button if a line is wrong

Prompt for your agent

Using the live Lilly demo at safak11-lilly-api.hf.space from the ssaaffaakk/Lilly repo, submit a photo of <sign image> to the photo reading flow. Expected output: the sign text and its English translation, one per region. Verify that the regions match the visible text in the photo before reporting.

Caveat. On 40 Commons photographs the reader found 67.0% of the text and invented 65 pieces, so compare each result with the real sign.
