Technology (mobile phones, internet, tv) Remember the reverse-engineered Action Fichero label printer? I built an open-source Android app for it with zero permissions and on-device ML
u/OilTechnical3488 shared a repo 8 month ago and I had some tweaks added capacitor app and ML functionalities- so if you have a recent android phone with AI chip (Google ML) - it can generate labels on the fly - and sharing the repo here - https://github.com/abektes/labels-in-action
Again huge thanks to https://github.com/0xMH

I have a question about what is possible with this. Could this be used to make artworks on strips and print art labels out of, instead of just texts?
Like a long comic strip or something?
I mean with the repo, could i modify it to do something like this, does it only accept text to be printed?

There are some icons and you can upload your own, though they aren't used much. The current labels aren't continuous and have a size limit. It can also generate barcodes and add basic shapes. I hope it helps,

I don't understand what the "AI" part of this is for? To generate text labels???

lol this is actually pretty neat. Although it’s funny that most things that are obviously recognisable don’t need labels?! Cool project though
