The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with optical character recognition software experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

Optical character recognition is a mechanical or electronic conversion of images of handwritten, printed, or typed text into machine-encoded text from a document, scene photo, scanned document photo, or subtitle text imposed on an image. The software used to read these handwritten, type, or printed texts is called optical character recognition software. It is widely used in printed paper data records or data entry, whether invoices, automatic receipts, passport documents, static data printouts, or any other suitable documentation. 

Early iterations worked on one font at a time and required training with photos of each character. Today, sophisticated systems with support for a range of digital image file formats inputs and a high degree of recognition accuracy for the majority of fonts are the norm. Some systems have the ability to reproduce structured output that closely resembles the original page, including columns, graphics, and other non-textual elements. Early optical character recognition techniques can be linked to telegraphy and the development of reading aids for the blind. Emanuel Goldberg created a device in 1914 that could read characters and translate them into telegraph code.

COVID-19 Impact: Shutdown of Manufacturing Industries Impeded Market Growth

The world was affected by the COVID-19 outbreak and its dissemination. Supply chain disruptions it has had a significant impact on the global industrial sector.
