Optical encoders are the most accurate of the standard styles of encoders, and the most commonly used in industrial automation applications. When specifying an optical encoder, it's important that the encoder have extra protection built in to prevent contamination from dust, vibration and other conditions common to industrial environments.
The IBM 1231 is an online optical mark reader that can read and score 2000 test answer sheets per hour, depending on downstream operations. [ 6 ] The correct answers for the test can either be entered using a master sheet (like the 1230) or sent to the 1231 using the optional master-mark special feature.
In the history of optical storage media there have been and there are different optical disc formats with different data writing/reading speeds. Original CD-ROM drives could read data at about 150 kB/s , 1× constant angular velocity ( CAV ), [ 1 ] the same speed of compact disc players without buffering.
An optical correlator is an optical computer for comparing two signals by utilising the Fourier transforming properties of a lens. [1] It is commonly used in optics for target tracking and identification.
An optical reader is a device that observes visual information and translates it into digital information, [1] as found within most image and barcode and matrix-code scanners. An example of optical readers are marksense systems for elections where voters mark their choice by filling a rectangle, circle, or oval, or by completing an arrow.
A multiline optical-character reader, or MLOCR, is a type of mail sorting machine that uses optical character recognition (OCR) technology to determine how to route mail through the postal system. MLOCRs work by capturing images of the front of letter-sized mailpieces, and extracting the entire address from each piece.

Earliest ideas of optical character recognition (OCR) are conceived. Fournier d'Albe's Optophone and Tauschek's Reading Machine are developed as devices to help the blind read. [1] 1931–1954 First OCR tools are invented and applied in industry, able to interpret Morse code and read text out loud.
