Abstract: Extracting card information comprises a server at an optical character recognition (“OCR”) system that interprets data from a card. The OCR system performs an optical character recognition algorithm an image of a card and performs a data recognition algorithm on a machine-readable code on the image of the card. The OCR system compares a series of extracted alphanumeric characters obtained via the optical character recognition process to data extracted from the machine-readable code via the data recognition process and matches the alphanumeric series of characters to a particular series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code. The OCR system determines if the alphanumeric series and the matching series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code comprise any discrepancies and corrects the alphanumeric series of characters based on the particular series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code upon a determination that a discrepancy exists.

Abstract: The technology of the present disclosure includes computer-implemented methods, computer program products, and systems to filter images before transmitting to a system for optical character recognition (“OCR”). A user computing device obtains a first image of the card from the digital scan of a physical card and analyzes features of the first image, the analysis being sufficient to determine if the first image is likely to be usable by an OCR algorithm. If the user computing device determines that the first image is likely to be usable, then the first image is transmitted to an OCR system associated with the OCR algorithm. Upon a determination that the first image is unlikely to be usable, a second image of the card from the digital scan of the physical card is analyzed. The optical character recognition system performs an optical character recognition algorithm on the filtered card.

Abstract: Extracting financial card information with relaxed alignment comprises a method to receive an image of a card, determine one or more edge finder zones in locations of the image, and identify lines in the one or more edge finder zones. The method further identifies one or more quadrilaterals formed by intersections of extrapolations of the identified lines, determines an aspect ratio of the one or more quadrilateral, and compares the determined aspect ratios of the quadrilateral to an expected aspect ratio. The method then identifies a quadrilateral that matches the expected aspect ratio and performs an optical character recognition algorithm on the rectified model. A similar method is performed on multiple cards in an image. The results of the analysis of each of the cards are compared to improve accuracy of the data.
