OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) readers are frequently used to capture input in standardized tests, such as the SAT and GMAT. These readers can detect marks made by a pencil or pen in pre-defined areas on a paper form, which are then scanned and processed by the computer system. MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) readers are used to read characters written in magnetic ink on checks and other financial documents, OCR (Optical Character Recognition) readers are used to recognize printed or handwritten text, and text readers are used to convert written or printed text into digital format, but these technologies are not commonly used in standardized tests like the SAT and GMAT.
