System for determining alignment of a user-marked document and method thereof

摘要

A method and system for processing a handwritten response on a user-marked document having a response area and at least one image marker which includes a means for capturing a digital image of the user-marked response sheet and a computer having programming to perform steps including identifying spatial position information of the at least one image marker in the captured digital image, calculating position information of the response area in the captured digital image relative to the identified spatial position information of the at least one image marker, and identifying pixel-value data of the response area after the user creates marks on the user-marked response sheet.

1. Method of determining alignment of a user-marked document for optical mark recognition, wherein the user-marked document includes at least one image marker, the method comprising:
capturing an image of a user-marked document including at least one image marker with an image capturing device; identifying a spatial location of the image marker; and converting the identified spatial location coordinates of a plane of the image marker to location of pixels within the captured image, wherein the at least one image marker includes additional information data.
