What is the use of optical character reader?
An Optical Character Reader (OCR) is a combination of software and a hardware document scanner. A document (such as a letter) is scanned with a flat-bed or roller scanner and read into a computer. That computer image (or picture) of the letter is then interpreted by the OCR software. The software generates a text file of the information that is in the image. That text file can be viewed, edited, printed, Etc. just as though it was created in a word processor. OCR software has come a long way. Early OCR programs were only marginally accurate. Today, they are much, much better. An OCR program can save lots of time re-entering text into a computer document file from a keyboard. However, you will still have to VERY CAREFULLY proof-read your document to catch the errors.
What do you go to too get paper to tyip on the computer?
You can first scan the paper. Then you install a OCR software. scan the image file and voila! you have converted the text into computer editable format.
What is the function of the OCR device?
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is used in a variety of situations. Businesses that receive a large quantity of mail that needs to be input to a computer, then archived (such as a bank or building society) - use OCR to scan incoming mail. This saves the time and man-hours that a human would take to manually input the data. Another use - would be to read a book to a blind person.
