Supiri

personal project parses Japanese text to boost reading speed and aid in content consumption efficiency

  • Inspired by the popular ReadQuick iOS reading app
  • Utilizes the Mecab Japanese morphological analyzer to extract dictionary nodes from Japanese text
  • Updated iOS 9-compatible Mecab Cocoa Library maintained on GitHub
  • Custom parsing code reconstructs the individual Japanese morphemes back into a human-readable “words”
  • Temporal code presents each word in sequence based on length (measured in Characters Per Minute) to prevent sub-vocalization and allow rapid consumption of text-based content
