Entries on scan receipts
A business card reader employs advanced OCR (Optical Character Reader) technology to identify the information on the business card in order to accurately file the text under the relevant heads. It is, thus, a very effective tool for storing and managing one's contact information. Contrary to what might appear at first thought, a business card reader is still not redundant in this age of smart phones and personal digital assistants. One does not need to look far for the reason; a person's full contact details, as given on such a visiting token, would take much too long to recite and store on a personal digital assistant, even the likes of which are out today. It is still considered courteous to introduce oneself by means of exchanging business cards.
