WORD SEARCHING DEVICE. PART II

Additional work directed towards recognition of complete words is reported. It is shown that such systems are unattractive because of the extremely severe tolerance requirements to effect a satisfactory match. The basic conclusion of the report is that a word searching device utilizing letter-by-letter recognition appears most promising. The system would have four basis units: (1) a text scanner incorporating a high resolution flying spot scanner and a suitable electronic servo to permit following lines of text; (2) a letter recognizer with associated logic having a learning capability; a word detector utilizing a transparency that can be marked by grease pencil to the code of the desired key words and associated scanner, photomultiplier and logic to detect occurrences of the key words; and (4) a read-out recorder to display the occurrences of the key words for study to determine possible interest. A simplified version of the word searcher is described which would show feasibility of all of the novel elements of the proposed system. (Author).
