The class for a text feature.

A CITextFeature object describes a quadrilateral region likely to contain upright text detected in a video or still image. The properties of a text feature identify its corners in image coordinates.

Use this class to locate areas of text within an image—for example, to extract and perspective-correct those portions of the image before performing your own optical character recognition or other processing tasks.

To detect rectangles in an image or video, choose the CIDetectorTypeText type when initializing a CIDetector object, and use the CIDetectorImageOrientation option to specify the desired orientation for finding upright text.
Subclass of the CIFeatureMBS class.
