Monday, September 14, 2020 TimeTec 0 Comments

 

Introduction
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a feature in i-Vizit, whereby printed texts are digitized to allow for editing, storing, and display. As such, i-Vizit OCR is capable of producing a high degree of recognition accuracy allowing it to capture information from the scanned ID, Licence, or Passport Card during the check-in registration process. To ensure a smooth and hassle-free process, it is advisable to perform the necessary settings and calibrate the OCR feature before using it. The usage of a tablet stand is highly recommended to achieve better accuracy and keeping the calibrated and actual ID placement at a constant position. Below will be the setup process for OCR features in the TimeTec VMS using the i-Vizit app.

Process
1. Please login to the i-Vizit app on your tablet using the registered Security Account in your TimeTec VMS. Kindly refer to this link http://www.fingertectips.com/2020/03/how-to-setup-security-account-in_31.html for guideline on setting up the security account in TimeTec VMS.
