Benefits of IRIS technology

The IRISOCR™ sdk was easily and seamlessly integrated into Zeutschel products and solutions. Users can copy, extract and read text from scanned images. Along with the IRISOCR™ sdk, there are many other functions possible: like Image Cleaning (Despeckle, Deskew, automatic orientation…,), Page Analysis whereby the page is divided into text, graphic, table, barcode or handprinted zones.

Thanks to the wide range of the use of the IRISOCR™ sdk we are able to offer a lot of additional benefits for our users every day. The long-term partnership with IRIS stands for the high quality of the technology and the excellent cooperation. We are looking forward to the future.
