Extract Data from Driver's License

Using IronOCR for data extraction from customers on a driver's license is simple. All you need to do is load the image into the IronOCR Computer Vision engine, and it will automatically recognize the text and extract it for you. IronOCR can extract essential details of customers such as name, address, date of birth, and license number, making it a valuable tool for many industries.

Here's a simple example of how to use IronOCR to extract text from an image of a driver's license:

using IronOcr; // Importing the IronOcr namespace to utilize its OCR capabilities.
using System; // Required for using the Console class.

public class OcrExample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        // Create an instance of IronTesseract, the OCR engine.
        var ocrTesseract = new IronTesseract();

        // Load the image file using the OcrInput class.
        using (var ocrInput = new OcrInput(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\License.jpg"))
        {
            // Execute OCR on the input image and capture the results.
            var ocrResult = ocrTesseract.Read(ocrInput);

            // Output the recognized text to the console.
            Console.WriteLine(ocrResult.Text);
        }
    }
}
using IronOcr; // Importing the IronOcr namespace to utilize its OCR capabilities.
using System; // Required for using the Console class.

public class OcrExample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        // Create an instance of IronTesseract, the OCR engine.
        var ocrTesseract = new IronTesseract();

        // Load the image file using the OcrInput class.
        using (var ocrInput = new OcrInput(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\License.jpg"))
        {
            // Execute OCR on the input image and capture the results.
            var ocrResult = ocrTesseract.Read(ocrInput);

            // Output the recognized text to the console.
            Console.WriteLine(ocrResult.Text);
        }
    }
}
Imports IronOcr ' Importing the IronOcr namespace to utilize its OCR capabilities.
Imports System ' Required for using the Console class.

Public Class OcrExample
	Public Shared Sub Main()
		' Create an instance of IronTesseract, the OCR engine.
		Dim ocrTesseract = New IronTesseract()

		' Load the image file using the OcrInput class.
		Using ocrInput As New OcrInput("C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\License.jpg")
			' Execute OCR on the input image and capture the results.
			Dim ocrResult = ocrTesseract.Read(ocrInput)

			' Output the recognized text to the console.
			Console.WriteLine(ocrResult.Text)
		End Using
	End Sub
End Class

How to OCR Driver License in C#, Figure 1: Driving License Driving License

Explanation of the Program

  1. Import the required namespaces: IronOcr for OCR functionality and System for console operations.
  2. Create a new instance of IronTesseract: This is the OCR engine responsible for recognizing text.
  3. Open the driving license image using the OcrInput class: Load the JPEG image of the driver's license for processing.
  4. Use the Read method: The method of IronTesseract performs OCR on the input image and returns the recognized text.
  5. Print the extracted text to the console: Display the results of OCR processing.

The output of IronOCR is impressive, and the accuracy is exceptional. IronOCR uses advanced algorithms to recognize text, and it can handle data in a wide range of fonts, sizes, and styles.
