[OCR] New MRZ Recognition Engine

Post by Elodie » Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:14 am

Hello,

We have released a new MRZ recognition engine to read Machine Readable Travel Documents.

The only thing you need to do for switching from our general-purpose OCR to MRZ is to specify the special context as a parameter of the RunOCR method:

Code: Select all

gdPictureOcr.SetImage(imageId);
resultId = gdPictureOcr.RunOCR(OCRSpecialContext.MRZ);
string mrzRead = _ gdPictureOcr.GetOCRResultText(resultId , false);
That’s it!
You get the result of the OCR and an MRZ value.

You can see the full documentation for special contexts in OCR here: https://www.gdpicture.com/guides/gdpicture/Gd ... ght=mrz%2C

You will find more info about MRZ in our blog article: https://www.gdpicture.com/blog/ocr-sdk-mrz/

Let us know if you have any questions!

If you need us to analyze documents that are not decoded well, please send them via our secure helpdesk at https://orpalis.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Regards,

Elodie
