scanned
Read by machine
Scanned is the past tense of scan.
To scan is to look over something quickly, searching for particular information: She scanned the crowd for her daughter.
Scanning also means to examine systematically, especially with technology—a machine scans documents, barcodes, or body parts to capture or analyze data: The nurse scanned my wristband.
In poetry, a line scans if its meter is regular.
