MDR (Mobile Document Recognition)

■MDR identifies any document
MDR is an advanced document recognition technology that uses a smart phone, tablet or other device to recognize a document.
The recognition engine developed by Osaka Prefecture University differs from traditional image recognition engines in its exceptional ability to recognize documents.
(Project developed by FUJI PRINTING Co., Ltd *1 in collaboration with Osaka Prefecture University *2)
■Features of MDR
  • Extremely accurate recognition of documents.
  • Rapid retrieval database.
  • Recognizes large volumes of pages (50,000,000 pages).

MDR recognizes each single page of a novel or other work that consists solely of characters.
Able to detect large volumes of pages quickly, the technology is a highly practical AR or content download recognition engine.
All registrations for the pages, AR content, and download content to be recognized are performed by the browser (content management site system).
The MDR System is a mobile system developed in collaboration by Osaka Prefecture University and FUJI PRINTING Co., Ltd.
