LEADTOOLS Imaging WCF Services
Several LEADTOOLS SDKs offer imaging and Recognition functionality in the form of WFC services that can be accessed via several protocols including HTTP, TCP, IPC and MSMQ. Depending on how the services will be accessed, they may be hosted in IIS, Window Activation Service or any .NET managed application process including console, Win Forms, WPF, Silverlight and Windows service applications.
