The global market for optical character recognition can be segmented based on different parameters. Depending upon type, for example, it can be segmented into software and service. Driven by the banking sector, the software segment currently rakes in maximum revenue in the market.

Geography-wise, the key segments of the global market for optical character recognition are North America, South America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific, among them, is slated to outshine all other segments vis-à-vis growth, powered by fast-expanding economies of China and India, which are seeing rapid uptake of optical character recognition owing to increased investments in technology in the region. The region is expected to witness 15.6% CAGR from 2017 to 2025.


Speed and Accuracy of OCR Drive Uptake

Optical character recognition is a technology that converts various kinds of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDF files or images by a digital camera into data that is editable and searchable. The overall document management process has been revolutionized with different industries lapping up the technology in their business processes on account of the speed and accuracy they accord.

Banking, legal, healthcare, education, finance, and government are some of the sectors that are at the forefront of driving up demand in the global optical character recognition market. “The advancement of OCR from a special purpose reader to a multi-purpose interactive system has lowered the cost of data capturing and has paved the way for the development of more reliable OCR system. Therefore, OCR technology can prove beneficial to businesses that require lot of paper documentation or have enormous historical data requiring to be digitized,” explains the lead analyst of the TMR report.


Domain Specific Applications Prove Beneficial for Market

Another factor stoking uptake of optical character recognition is the domain specific applications of OCR system such as check OCR, receipt OCR, invoice OCR, etc. These can be used for automatic number plate recognition, data entry for business documents, extracting crucial information, and as an assistive technology for visually impaired and blind users.

A trend noticed in the global optical character recognition market is the soaring popularity of cloud based software.

Automotive EGR Gas Temperature Sensor Market Anticipated To Surge With An Impressive CAGR Of 2025

In an IC engine, EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) gas temperature sensors are used to measure the temperature of the exhaust system. EGR is a technique that is utilized to reduce the nitrogen oxide emissions in petrol/diesel engines. Exhaust gases are reintroduced into the engine combustion chamber to cool the combustion flame. Some vehicles employ an EGR temperature sensor to determine EGR operation. This information is used by the powertrain control module (PCM) to regulate the EGR operation. EGR gas temperature sensor is located in front of the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and in front of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). It detects the exhaust gas temperature and converts it into a voltage and transmits this signal to the engine ECU in order to control engine conditions to effectively reduce emission. EGR bypass valve function diagnostic as well as thermal protection. Gas temperature sensors are employed in various applications such as petrochemicals, automotive s...
