CHARACTER RECOGNITION APPARATUS

摘要

Character recognition apparatus wherein projection pattern signals obtained by projecting the density distribution of a printed or typed character on two axes orthogonal to each other are transformed into frequency spectrum patterns by a Fourier transform unit, the transformed signals are compared with a number of standard frequency spectrum pattern signals which correspond to a number of standard characters and which are obtained by a method similar to the foregoing one, and the standard character corresponding to the frequency spectrum pattern of the highest degree of similarity is outputted as a recognized character.
