Automated Mail Stream Processing

Today, Dec 2004

Building on Parascript's (www.parascript.com) flagship AddressScript software, which currently processes 67 billion letters and flats a year. A new AddressScript Parcel addresses the most difficult mail stream - parcels. Parcels, unlike letters and flats, pose additional recognition challenges including marker and other thick inks and "noise" that make readability of critical fields more difficult. Using neural net technologies, AddressScript Parcel identifies addresses, removes background noise and recognizes relationships between critical fields on a mail piece. Parascript overcomes the challenge of deciphering destination address blocks, barcodes, and other critical fields on packages.

"With AddressScript Parcel, postal agencies can now read greater volumes of mail more accurately and quickly," said Jeff GiIb, president and CEO of Parascript.
