MICR-Magnetic Ink Character Reader
MICR stands for Magnetic Ink Character Recognition. It is a technology which allows machines to read and process cheques enabling thousands of cheque transactions in a short time. MICR code is usually a nine digit code comprising of some important information about the transaction and the bank.
The first three digits in the MICR code represent the city code that is the city in which the bank branch is located. In most cases it is in line with the PIN code of the postal addresses in India. The next three digits stand for the bank code while the last three digits represent the bank branch code.
OMR-Optical Mark Reader
Optical mark recognition (also called optical mark reading and OMR) is the process of capturing human-marked data from document forms such as surveys and tests.
Many traditional OMR devices work with a dedicated scanner device that shines a beam of light onto the form paper. The contrasting reflectivity at predetermined positions on a page is then used to detect these marked areas because they reflect less light than the blank areas of the paper.
Some OMR devices use forms which are preprinted onto 'transoptic' paper and measure the amount of light which passes through the paper, thus a mark on either side of the paper will reduce the amount of light passing through the paper.

Difference between OMR and MICR is given below:-
Explanation:
OMR stands for Optical Marks Recognition
- OMR engine is trying to recognize something that looks like type objects like checkboxes, and so on.
- It is the method of collecting human-marked data from report sources, such as interviews and studies.
- That is used to read surveys, numerous-choice test papers in the shape of lines or shaded areas.
MICR stands for Magnetic Ink Character Recognition
- MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) is also a character recognition system that uses thermal ink and numbers and symbols.
- It is exposed to a specific scan that magnetizes the magnetic ink and transforms the magnet information into letters.
- It is used for scanned checks in order to determine legitimacy.
