Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily associate actually entered data with computer input data by putting a mark in an input paper at the time of inputting data and permitting a mark reader to associate the inputted data with actually entered data. CONSTITUTION:The paper is set to a coordinate input device 101, and data is entered from the device. Upon the completion of the entry, a printer 102 prints a mark such as a bar code in the upper right corner on the back of the paper. the inputted data is recognized by a recognizer 103, made into a code, transmitted to a central processing unit 104, and stored in a storage device 107. At the time of recognition the entry paper is set to a paper setting stand 105. The mark reader 106 reads the mark entered on the back of the entry paper. Input data corresponding to the mark is taken out of the storage deice 107, displayed on a display device 108, whereby the actually entered data is recognized and corrected.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a data input device for inputting characters, figures, etc. into a computer system or the like.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

With the development of information processing technology, characters, figures, tables, etc. are input using coordinate input devices or optical reading devices, and these are processed by central processing units, etc., recognized or transcribed, and the contents are It has come to be coded and used in various ways.

By the way, when inputting characters, figures, etc., these recognition technologies are used to encode them, but although the recognition accuracy has been improving year by year, it is still not perfect, and it is difficult to understand what is being input. It needs to be confirmed by a weirdo. At this time, in order to match the data entered into the computer with the data actually written on the paper, etc., either re-enter some of the input data into the calculator, or run it through the input form from beginning to end in the order in which it was entered. There was a problem that had to be done.

[Object of the Invention] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to check the actual entered data when confirming the data actually entered and the data entered into the computer. It is an object of the present invention to provide a device which facilitates the above-mentioned confirmation work by providing a symbol on a data sheet and using a device that reads the symbol at the time of confirmation to correspond to computer input data.

[Summary of the Invention] According to the present invention, symbols are provided on an input form when inputting data, and a reading device is used to confirm the correspondence between the computer input data and the paper.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, it is possible to easily correspond between actual input data and computer input data, so there is no need to re-enter part of the data at the time of confirmation, and confirmation can be performed in any order. It has great practical effects.

[Embodiments of the invention] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.
01 is a coordinate input device, 102 is a symbol printing device such as a printer, 103 is a character/figure recognition device, 104 is a central processing unit, 105 is a confirmation paper setting table, 106 is a symbol reading device such as an optical scanner, 107 is a storage device , 108 is a display device.

First, a sheet of paper is set 1 inch above the coordinate input device, and entries are made on this device as shown in FIG. 2(a). When the entry is completed, a symbol such as a bar code is printed by the printer 102 at the upper right corner of the back side of the paper as shown in FIG. 2(b).

This input data is recognized and encoded by the recognition device 103 and sent to the central processing unit 104.

The data input in this way is stored in the storage device 107.

Next, the confirmation method is 1. Place the entry form on the paper setting table 1.
Set it on 05. As a result, the symbol written on the back side of the entry form is read by the symbol reading device 10B, the input data corresponding to this symbol is retrieved from the storage device 107 and displayed on the display device 108, and the actual entered data is checked, corrected, etc.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily associate entry forms with computer input data, and the computer input data can be easily confirmed, which has great practical advantages.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, a code may be printed in advance on an entry form and a reading device may be provided in the coordinate input device, thereby allowing symbols to be input into the input data.

Further, the input device is not limited to the coordinate input device, but may be an optical reader, and the entry form may be one on which symbols are printed in advance as shown in FIG. In short, the present invention can be implemented with various modifications without departing from the gist thereof.
