Solution

Passport and ID Verification

The choice between document readers comes down to one question: does the record need to prove what the document looked like, or only what it said?

How to choose

Four decisions, in order

1

Decide on evidence

Full-page readers image the whole data page at 400 DPI under visible, infrared and UV light. Half-page readers extract the MRZ. Only the first produces evidence.

2

Cover the card formats you actually see

Contact smart cards to ISO/IEC 7816 Parts 1-4, contactless to ISO14443, and ISO1801 driver licences are separate capabilities, not assumptions.

3

Decide attended or unattended

Kiosks need self-sensing capture and no operator button. Desks can use a placed-and-triggered workflow.

4

Build against the SDK

The full-page readers expose illumination source selection, image type, compression, photo extraction and LED control through a high-level API.

Questions

About passport and id verification

Where does passport and id verification usually go wrong?
Almost always at step one. Full-page readers image the whole data page at 400 DPI under visible, infrared and UV light. Half-page readers extract the MRZ. Only the first produces evidence.
Which model would you start with for passport and id verification?
The EPP202 ICAO 9303 Document Reader, for the reasons set out on its specification page. The other three models on this page cover the adjacent positions.
Can the passport and id verification hardware be customised?
OEM and ODM are supported with experienced engineers, and for some products the software can be customised as well. Mini and mix orders are accepted so the approach can be piloted first.
