OCR is optical character recognition. It's used by scanners or similar devices to translate text in an image to actual text. Touch screen computers can use a similar technology to read hand written input, but I don't think it's the exact same.
No. An OCR is a scanner combined with a recognition program. A touch screen is a monitor combined with a pointing device.
Optical Character Recognition.
full form of OCR is Optical Code Reader
The function of OCR, input device is to scan the characters on the page, one by one and then compares them with characters stored in the computer's memory.
Yes, if your scanning software has OCR (Optical character recognition.) OCR lets the computer know there is text in the document and then you can edit that text.
OCR or Optical Character Recognition is useful to take text that already exists on a page like a book or notes from a class and using a scanner get the image into a computer where the OCR software can then be used to convert the image file often a ".tiff" to an ASCII text file that can be saved and edited in a text editor or note pad software package on the computer.

It depends on exactly what you're after. You options are really either a scanner or a graphics tablet.With a scanner you could write or draw freehand onto a sheet of paper and scan it in. This will produce an image file on your computer, e.g. a JPG, GIF, BMP, etc. If you want the computer to "understand" your hand writing you would use your scanner's OCR software.OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition and is where the computer guesses what the letters, numbers and characters are and tries to translate them into characters on your computer. Although OCR software these days is pretty respectable it still depends a lot on your handwriting.A graphics tablet: imagine a mouse mat which you draw on with a magic pen. The computer reads your hand strokes with the pen across the mat and that is exactly what appears on the screen. Again, OCR software could be applied in this instance too.
