ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CHARACTER RECOGNITION METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING SEQUENTIAL CODE

摘要

A character recognition method to apply one or more user-controlled definitions to scanned writing is implemented by an electronic device. The electronic device includes an image capturing device where a recognition rule is set for recognizing a type of a sequential code according to an arrangement rule of characters of the type of sequential codes. A first sequential code is extracted from a captured image of an object having a sequential code and when the first sequential code does not match with the recognition rule, the first sequential code is corrected according to the preset recognition rule to obtain a second sequential code for matching with the recognition rule.
