The core feature of SnapCal+ BOYK is its revolutionary visual recognition system, which is built on three key technology layers: first, intelligent image capture via the device's camera with support for click-to-focus, multi-camera zoom, and low-light optimization; second, an OpenAI-based visual transformation engine specifically trained to target the layout features of event posters; and finally, a structured data conversion module that converts the recognition results into standard calendar event format.
In practice, after the user shoots the flat material containing event information, the system will complete the following processing within 3-5 seconds: locate the text area → identify the key information fields → parse the time expression → infer the repetitive pattern → structure the output. For example, when shooting a music festival poster, it can accurately extract information combinations such as 'Strawberry Music Festival/June 15, 14:00/Chaoyang Park Main Stage/Single Event'.
This function is especially suitable for dealing with complex time expressions, such as the first Wednesday of every month 18:30-20:00, such as non-standard time format, the system can realize accurate parsing through contextual understanding, which is difficult to reach the advantage of traditional manual input.
