OCR Technology

OCR, or Optical Character Recognition, is a technology that converts different types of documents, like scanned paper files or images, into editable and searchable digital text. It works by analyzing the shapes of letters and numbers in an image and translating them into machine-readable text. This process enables computers to read and process printed or handwritten documents, making it easier to store, search, and edit information. OCR is widely used in various applications, such as digitizing books, automating data entry, and recognizing text from images in smartphones.
