What are anchors used for?

[Vinh Nguyen]

Are the 4 anchors, either big circle or angular, used only in the template creation step, or also in the processing of the scanned images? I am especially curious of the latter. For example, suppose I create a template. Then when I process images, where some image may have been shrunken, blown up, or distorted (say angled 20 deg clockwise), would FormScanner leverage the 4 anchors to be able to re-orient the distorted images to correctly pick up the right data?

Thank you.

Hi,

the four markers are used for re-orient the images and for delimiting the scanning area.

Thanks for confirming Alberto. So, the anchors ARE used in the processing of the subsequent scanned images? FormScanner identifies the 4 anchors in each image, then proceed with processing the bubbles? Thank you.
