Visy reports strong demand for new OCR use cases

Terminals have re-evaluated their business processes during the pandemic, resulting in significant demand for new use cases according to optical character recognition (OCR) and gate operating system (GOS) specialist Visy.

Visy’s Automatic Damage Detection System (ADDS) is the world’s first such system using vision technology.

Traditional OCR systems extract data such as license plates numbers, container codes, seal presence, door direction and hazardous good labels from camera images when a vehicle drives through a portal.
