Optical Mark Readers – Essential to Industry and Commerce

Abstract

The need for accurate information is becoming increasingly crucial in modern industrial organisations, and an adequate computer system is essential to collect and organise such information. The optimal mark reader is proving to be a very much faster way of entering data into a computer system than traditional systems – one machine can enter data faster than 30 keyboard clerks working simultaneously. Originally used in the education sector more than 20 years ago, it now finds application in a variety of fields.
