Abstract
A document processing system for remote processing an image frame of a document and methods of using thereof. The system includes a remote server, having a processing unit and a data repository unit. The system further includes a personal mobile device having an image acquisition device for acquiring at least one image frame of a document, a communication unit adapted to communicate with the processing unit and an image-transmission-management module. Upon receiving the at least one image frame of a document by the remote server from the personal mobile device, via the wireless network, the processing unit extracts textual data, image data or both from the received at least one image frame to thereby create extracted data; associates an access code to the extracted data; and stores the at least one image frame, the extracted data and the associated access code in the data repository unit.
