HIGH RESOLUTION FULL-PAGE EPASSPORT READER

Regula model 8703 is the world’s first true high resolution full-page ePassport reader featuring 1040 DPI resolution and as well the world´s first full-page passport reader with a transmitted light table in the cover for acquiring high resolution images of watermarked pages of travel & ID documents. The images taken by Regula model 8703 enable automated document verification solutions for the first time to automatically match micro text and printed security background features of the data page of passports and other identity documents and deliver a high level of detail only known from bulky forensic inspection systems used at back-office operations.

A typical use of Regula model 8703 is as document verification scanner in a secondary inspection scenario. It is currently packaged in a suitcase with internal batteries and space for a communication unit for VSAT communications with additional support for a secured WLAN Hotspot, GPRS, VOIP, etc. communication channels, so that it can also be deployed in mobile checkpoints around the world.

Dedicated software feature enable an operator to either send complete images or only cropped areas of interests for manual inspection by a forensic expert to a dedicated workstation anywhere in the world, directly from the Inspection system.

Regula model 8703 works with Avalon´s VeriDoc solution to provide further automated checking of micro text and printed security background features.

The first operational usage of Regula model 8703 is in a state-of-the-art secondary inspection scenario, where officers in the field can get high end document verification results and use the Inspection stations at the same time to involve the decision of a forensic expert from anywhere in the world, delivering the expert service where it is needed most via state of the art technology. It is a sensitive project, which we are not able to disclose any detail.

Regula model 8703 closes the gap between forensic examination stations and regular document inspection systems and enables authorities to provide expert advice & service to remote locations and therefore increasing security effectively while leveraging existing resources in remote locations for a high ROI.
