What you need is an access to the camera frames, so you can send them to Tesseract. The Vuforia SDK offers a way to access the frames using the QCAR::UpdateCallback
interface (documentation here).
What you need to do is create a class that implements this protocol, register it to the Vuforia SDK using the QCAR::registerCallback()
(see here), and from there you'll get notified each time the Vuforia SDK has processed a frame.
This callback will be provided a QCAR::State
object, from which you can get access to the camera frame (see the doc for QCAR::State::getFrame()
here), and send it to the Tesseract SDK.
But be aware of the fact that the Vuforia SDK works with frames in a rather low resolution (on many phones I tested, it returns frames in the 360x240 to 720x480 range, and more often the former than the latter), which may not be accurate enough for Tesseract to detect text.
