OCR/OCV: Reading and verifying character strings
AIT OCR Inspector
The AIT OCR Inspector combines two technologies for reading (OCR) and verifying (OCV) single- and multi-line character strings and can be easily retrofitted into existing systems using the AIT OCR Workframe. Typical applications range from best-before dates on packaging to part marking (e.g., type/batch numbers), even with variable print quality and surfaces. OCR Deep Learning is available for challenging cases without parameterization, with training on approximately 50 image examples.
OCR classic
■ for printed codes of medium to very good quality on a uniform background
OCR Deep Learning
■ mastering difficult fonts: mirrored, faint/wavy print, rotation-independent
Use case examples
■ best before date reading/checking, part marking (needle-punched, embossed, laser-engraved) without production stoppages
Workframe retrofit
■ self-sufficient, adjustable format, identification from above/side; quick to integrate into systems
Advantages
■ Reading & verifying multi-line texts; robust in case of unknown/changing order
OCR & OCV for single- and multi-line texts
AI for complex fonts and surfaces
Focus on best-before dates & labeling
Self-sufficient system
Rotation-independent OCR & OCV
