As part of the LEAD Technologies 25th anniversary, we are creating 25 projects in 25 days to celebrate LEAD's depth of features and ease of use. Today's project comes from Nathan.

Last month we introduced LEADTOOLS Cloud Services, a brand-new product offering from LEADTOOLS, the World Leader in Imaging SDKs. We highlighted its OCR, Barcode, and Document Conversion features, and how to use the services in a Node.js application. In this post, we’ll explore a more applied scenario.

We are almost done with our blog series introduction of the upcoming updates to LEADTOOLS V19 Document and Medical technologies. These updates will include a market-first DICOM Hanging Protocol implementation as well as the fastest Form Recognition and Processing engine in the world! Additionally, the upcoming update includes new features for the HTML5 Zero-footprint Medical Web Viewer, DICOM Storage Server, Recognition Engines, Document Viewer, Document Formats, Linux, and Credit Card Reader.

Today's post is about the new features coming to the LEADTOOLS imaging SDK for Linux development:

Anyone who kept up with us at LEAD over the last year knows that we love a good celebration, especially in honor of 25 year anniversary (see: LEAD Technologies: 25 years of Imaging Excellence and 25 Projects in 25 Days: Celebrating LEADTOOLS' Depth of Features and Ease of Use). And today we join the world in celebrating the 25th birthday of Linux operating system!

Linux will turn 25 years old on August 25, the day Linus Torvalds sent out his fateful message asking for help with a new operating system. "I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things)," he wrote in the comp.os.minix message board. And the rest, as they say, is history.
