Computer Vision - OCR using Python

****  This course is a quick starter for people who would like to become Computer Vision - Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Specialist  **** 

Optical Character Recognition commonly called as OCR is the new buzzword in industry which is driving digitization in the enterprises. Every enterprise wants to adopt OCR to achieve easier and quicker access to their streams of data in digital format. An OCR implementation not only speed up the workflow of Text processes across various industries but also help in providing better customer experience. In fact, as per a recent research report, OCR market which was around 7.2 billion US Dollar is expected to see a huge growth in market size and will reach 13.4 billion US dollar by 2025.
