What is OMR ?

Optical Mark Recognition (OMR), is the process of scanning of paper sheets to detect pen or pencil mark made at a specific position. Optical Mark Readers or OMR Readers (Softwares) are primarily used in big educational institutes for speedy data collection from Admission Forms and for quick checking of OMR Answer Sheets used in MCQ tests.

There are two types of Optical Mark Readers:
1) OMR Softwares and 2) OMR Machines.

Difference between OMR, OCR & ICR

OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) is 100% accurate technology. It reads black marks made at specific locations on a sheet of paper. It is concerned just with the size and intensity of darkness. It is not affected by language or purpose.

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is used as a supportive technology to convert large volumes of printed text material into softcopy data. It is around 80% accurate with plain printed text but almost fails in case of formulas and expressions. Thus it is not used anywhere in the examination process. Addmen OMR Software has OCR capacity for reading pre-printed Form numbers etc.

ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition) is also used as a supportive tool to read handwritten text. It is even lesser accurate around 60%. So it is used to convert large data from feedback, survey & application forms but the output is finally scrutinised and corrected simultaneously by human supervisor.
