Excaliwire: Printed Diagrams In, EDA Files Out

Field notes

The proposed workflow starts with scanned user or factory service manuals, then estimates processing cost before payment. Its stated outputs include KiCad files, a netlist, and a searchable database; the site says uncertain wires or connectors can be reviewed in a feedback loop. The project describes itself as early, with the concept proved on automotive wiring diagrams and expansion to other industries underway.
