The rapid rates of digitization in various industries, as well as new product launches, are among the key factors strengthening the country’s market growth.

The technology utilized for the detection of handwritten as well as printed text characters of digital pictures or physical documents, like scanned paper documents into Google docs, is termed optical character recognition. Moreover, the technology examines a document’s text, subsequently converting characters into code that can be used for data processing. Optical character recognition systems also comprise software as well as hardware combination that can convert physical documents into a machine or screen-readable text.

In the United States, the judicial system is highly technologically-fueled. In this regard, the country’s judiciary uses various scanners as well as digital solutions, including optical character recognition. Once the scanned paper document goes through the optical character recognition processing, its text can be searched and edited in a word processing software, like Google Docs and Microsoft Word. Before OCR, the solitary solution for digitizing printed paper documents was to physically re-type the text, a method that proved to be tremendously time-consuming and prone to mistakes. As a result, these factors are projected to proliferate the optical character recognition market in the United States.

The United States optical character recognition market is segmented into component, industry, and end-user. The industry category is further segmented into BFSI, transport and logistics, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, IT & telecom, government, education, and others. In the healthcare industry, optical character recognition is used for electronically scanning documents and producing a completely digital copy. OCR can recognize a higher range of document types and accomplish notably higher accuracy rates compared to simple software. Hence, this aspect makes optical character recognition the ideal choice for the healthcare industry, where efficiency and accuracy are important.

Optical character recognition for government agencies is uniquely developed to allow pixels representing computer-made text from raster pictures to be altered into digitally stored characters. OCR applications aim to identify and decode structural aspects of a document, such as non-text visual components and columns.

Some of the major companies operating in the United States optical character recognition market include Foxit Software Inc, Google LLC, Microsoft Corp, etc.

With its headquarters in the United States, Google Inc, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc, is a leading provider of search as well as advertising services on the internet.
