Business card and MRZ recognition

Recognition of Machine Readable Zones (MRZ) in ID documents

In many personal identification documents, personal information is encoded in Machine Readable Zones as specified by ICAO in Doc 9303. ABBYY’s ready-to-use technology allows automatically extracting field data from Machine Readable Zones in ID documents and verification of the relevant check digits. The results can be exported as XML or JSON format. This feature adds significant value to systems for fast capture and verification of personal data – for example during customer onboarding or verification processes.

Ready-to-use business card recognition technology

Business cards are specific documents, often photographed or scanned as several images on one page. Ready-to-use Business card recognition technology is integrated in FineReader Engine and can be directly used for recognition of business cards. The API provides a full set of features for business cards processing: from special pre-processing features to the API that provides access to the extracted data.
