Batch scanning implies the ability of the system to recognize start and end of the document. There are two features to come in which batch scanning could be built upon:

Re: Support batch scanning of documents
We have experimental code for both requirements. The branch is called "/features/control_codes".Zone OCR
Autofill metada
As with many of our experimental branches, the code works but it is still not up to our coding standards in order to be merged.
