To convert the text in scanned pages or photographs directly to editable word or text documents using either-
1) A Software 2) An Application
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Digitising printed texts so that 1) they can be electronically edited, 2) searched, 3) stored more compactly, 4) displayed on-line, 5) and used in machine processes
MOTIVE
Has no patent signed up till date Increases efficiency & effectiveness of
office work Ability to instantly search through content No rewriting everything to correct one
thing. Workflow is increased Can be used in banks, office, colleges,
almost anywhere
SOLUTION
To make a software with the help of OCR Technology which gives 100% output without any bugs
OR To make an app on mobile phones for
conversion of text in photographs to documents with the help of OCR Technology
BASIC IDEA
Optical character recognitionOR
Optical character reader
Mechanical or electronic conversion of images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text, whether from a scanned document, a photo of a document, a scene-photo
WHAT IS OCR ???
No OCR software is 100 percent accurate. The number of errors depends upon the quality and type of document, including the font used. Errors that occur during OCR include misreading letters, skipping over letters that are unreadable, or mixing together text from adjacent columns or image captions.
Accuracy
OCR has difficulty differentiating between characters, such as the number zero and a capital "O."
Work-Arounds
OCR works best with good quality typed documents. Handwritten documents cannot be easily read by OCR software.
Problems with poor contrast and difficulty with documents that have both images and text.
Limited Documents
Decreases work load Saves time and money Produces cleaner data Fast & accurate Gain efficiencies in production imaging systems. Reduces labour costs required for verification Scalable for growth or increased document capture Common output formats including: Formatted ASCII RTF - support for color/grayscale images PDF - support for color/grayscale images HTML
UNIQUE SELLING POINT
Data entry for business documents, e.g. check, passport, invoice, bank statement and receipt
Automatic number plate recognition Automatic insurance documents key
information extraction Extracting business card information into a
contact list
APPLICATIONS
More quickly make textual versions of printed documents, e.g. book scanning for a Project
Make electronic images of printed documents searchable, e.g. Google Books
Converting handwriting in real time to control a computer (pen computing)
Assistive technology for blind and visually impaired users
APPLICATIONS
Entire banking sector In colleges, schools etc In offices Widely used as a form of data entry from printed paper
