D SCAN AUTHENTICATOR CF
The D SCAN AUTHENTICATOR CF (CF stands for Compact Full page) is a
compact and small full-page document reader. Some of the following
characteristics require additional software functions which might be contained in
D SCAN Extensions or project specific.
The document authentication reader has the following characteristics:
• Capability to capture images of an entire data page of an ID document and to
read RFID tag data contactless using a 13.56 MHz RFID Transceiver.
• Reads RFID and optical data of an ID document in one step without the need
to re-position the document. The One Step scanner.
• The additionally installed card reader provides a contact interface, which
allows the device to read the chip data of ID cards.
• Allows to check the authenticity of security elements of ID documents by
comparing the differently lit images (visible, IR, UV and CX light).
• High speed data capture and transmission using the USB 2.0 interface.
• The single RFID antenna covers the entire document contact area, so the
read function is not affected by the position of the chip inside the document.
• The extra large optical scanning area allows inspection of documents
without removal of the protective cover.
• It can be configured to perform all scanning and checking functions in a
fully automatic mode with no operator intervention.
• No moving parts and optional high-performance LED UV illumination
ensure maximum reliability.
• The D SCAN AUTHENTICATOR CF complies with ISO standards and
achieved excellent results in recent ICAO interoperability tests in Japan and
Singapore in 2005, and in Germany in 2006, where they were able to read all
presented passports.
