METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECOGNIZING HANDWRITTEN CHARACTERS IN AN OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION MACHINE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Handwritten character recognition is facilitated in an optical character recognition machine by electronically scaling-down the size of received characters, both in height and width, to normalized dimensions. The scaling-down factors are rendered adjustable as a function of the dimensions of the received character. Actual recognition is rendered highly reliable by employing a time-shared electronic mask which tests the received characters for the following features, in sequence: Top horizontal line; upper left and/or upper right portion line crossings; mid-portion horizontal lines; lower left and/or lower right portion line crossings; and bottom horizontal line. Recognition of the character is effected by decoding the test results.
