Embedded TimeTec OCR Licensing

Convert Printed Text to Digital Text Through Your Mobile Device Instantaneously

Optical character recognition (also optical character reader, OCR) is the electronic conversion of printed text into the machine-encoded text from a scanned document. It is a common method of digitizing printed texts so they can be electronically edited, searched, stored more compactly, and displayed online. OCR is a field of research in pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and computer vision.

TimeTec OCR is a spin-off licensing product derived from the visitor management module of TimeTec VMS and the i-Neighbour systems. TimeTec OCR is capable of producing a high degree of recognition accuracy for most fonts, and it supports a variety of digital image file format inputs for your benefit.

TimeTec OCR is available for Android and iOS platforms, licensable for developers who are interested to embed OCR technology in their App(s). TimeTec OCR enables immediate scanning of documents such as driver license or identification card to be converted into text for further processing instantaneously.
