ABSTRACT: Users intending to automate data capture of their survey information have often made inquiries about the advantages or disadvantages of Optical Mark Reading (OMR). It is a device that reads marks on compatible pre-designed scan forms. There was a prototype designed to answer the need for the affordable yet compatible alternative to commercial OMR. However, the speed of the prototype was very slow; the accuracy offers room for improvement and the generated reports were not enough as far as academic assessment is concerned. This research study is designed to enhance a fabricated initial microcontroller based electronic reader that can be used to check assessments at higher speed and with better accuracy and with additional generated reports. Specifically, the study requires redesigning the reader circuit, the feeder or forming feed mechanism circuit and the mark sensing circuit. Experimental testing was used to test the speed and accuracy of the device prototype. Based on the operational tests conducted, it is found out that the enhancements made in the initial prototype which includes the microcontroller circuit, and the mark sensing circuit resulted to a substantial improvement in the checking speed and better accuracy. Furthermore, the additional generated reports were found to be important in academic assessments. The researcher recommends that better mechanism in the feeder circuit or form feed and retrieval circuit should be implemented. This can be done by using a model of the printer that has greater performance on paper feed. Similarly, same prototype can be designed but can read check ( √ ) or cross ( X ) marks in the predefined scanned paper forms. Finally, other computer application programs may be developed to maximize the functionality of this prototype such as faculty evaluation, research-related surveys, among others.
