Before the development of the OMR technology, educational sector use to spend millions of dollars in evaluating answer sheet manually. The entire process consumed a lot of time and was expensive too as well as data entered was often found incorrect. So to reduce this issue a software was developed known as OMR sheet checking software.
So, today schools, colleges, universities and many companies are turning to data captured technologies automatically that will extract data from the forms that will reduce time, costs, and errors occurred during the manual processing. OMR technology can easily capture human marked data from the form including data either from machine –print, hand marked, cursive text, or from check boxes, and bar-codes.
To read the human marked data one must design the forms. It can be designed by the inbuilt template or can design their own template to reduce inaccurate and missing data. By doing so one can improve the quality of the OMR sheet by segregating the key field into name, roll number, questions, question type, location and bar-code etc. The key field should be placed on the top so that it minimizes the chances of errors. Once the final design of the OMR sheet is ready you can either print the sheet into black and white or colored.
OMR technology is considered to be the fastest, efficient and accurate means to conduct the examination. OMR sheet reading software is smooth to operate with low maintenance cost. As the processing of multiple OMR sheets can be done simultaneously in one go and it provides complete information in one table. Even information stored in one pages can be clubbed from the other pages to provide combined result.
The OMR sheet significant feature is that it allows you to get different type images for different purpose. It helps to upload the student photograph and students signature as image. There are many more options that needed to be uploaded but due to the limitation of the sheet and so many bubbles cannot be filled for address and e- mail id etc.
One can even get printed bar-codes on the OMR sheet. The OMR software will read the bar code and will find out the misplaced sheet. This is the most efficient and effective tool to locate the misplaced OMR sheet or it is even used to point out erroneous or incomplete sheets. Further this software will efficiently create bar-codes if there is any requirement.
There are many other information that cannot be collected as filled bubbles or by ticking the check boxes due to limitation of space in the OMR sheet. So, there is another option one can collect hand written text and get it read by the by the OCR intelligent module. This OCR module will read the data and convert typed content into editable text.
Conclusion
Therefore, online sheet reader software is one the best solution ever one can experience. It helps to design your own template with inbuilt or you can design accordingly to your desire. And this helps you to avoid going to the vendor for change of template design. OMR sheet reader has reduced the human error and provides precise result. This technology not benefits the educational sector but more and more companies are also adopting it for many other purposes.
