OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION (OCR) PORTABLE AND STANDALONE
A portable or standalone OCR device is a singular device that integrates a camera, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Software and speech software. A printed document or book can be scanned and read by the same machine. This option is often popular with those people who don’t have a computer or don’t want to learn to use a computer. Some of these machines allow document storage, these devices scan and read significantly faster than using computer based flatbed scanners. They are light weight and portable. Examples include:
