The steps to recognize a mathematical formula using SnippAI are as follows:
- Open the SnippAI tool and use the screenshot function (default shortcut Ctrl+Shift+S) to intercept the area containing the formula
- Ensure that the intercepted formula image is clear and complete, avoiding blurring or occlusion
- After releasing the mouse, SnippAI automatically analyzes the image content
- The system displays the recognized LaTeX code (e.g. converting E=mc² to E=mc^2)
- Click the "Copy" button to paste the code into a LaTeX editor (e.g. Overleaf).
- It can also be saved directly as a .tex file for subsequent use.
Note: For handwritten formulas, the recognition effect depends on the clarity of the handwriting; for complex formulas, it is recommended to intercept the complete area to improve the accuracy.
