"""Advanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engine for visual automation.
This module implements sophisticated text extraction capabilities using multiple OCR
backends and techniques. Provides high-accuracy text recognition with language support,
confidence scoring, and comprehensive result metadata.
Security: Sensitive content detection and privacy-aware text processing.
Performance: Optimized text extraction with caching and batch processing.
Accuracy: Multi-backend approach with result validation and confidence scoring.
