02 / E-PASSPORT READING

Document imaging, OCR and e-passport chip reading

FASTpass P1 is a compact full-page reader for ICAO-standard e-passports, visas and ID cards, as well as 1D/2D barcodes. It combines 500 PPI document imaging, MRZ character recognition and contactless RF chip reading. Deployed across international markets, it supports immigration, visa processing, airline check-in, e-gates, kiosks, duty-free shops and identity checks.

Rapid reading

MRZ character recognition takes no more than 0.3 seconds. MRZ reading, including white-light, IR and UV scans, takes less than 1.3 seconds under the specified operating conditions.

Proprietary OCR and SDK

The in-house OCR engine is refined through analysis of misread characters, while SDK updates support newly issued ICAO e-passports.

Compact design and status indicators

The compact design fits limited workspaces. An LED bar and indicators help users position documents and check reading status.

E-passport security checks

Supports authentication checks to verify ICAO e-passport data and chip authenticity.

Reading speed depends on device configuration, document condition and operating environment.

03 / FINGERPRINT ACQUISITION

Fingerprint capture and recognition for your application

FASTfinger scanners cover single-finger, dual-finger and ten-print enrollment. Patented LES (Light Emitting Sensor) technology captures 500 PPI fingerprint images. Compact, lightweight designs support office use and mobile work in outdoor environments for enrollment, verification and identification in public and commercial systems.

Discuss this solution ↗

LES sensing technology

Captures electroluminescent fingerprint images using a multilayer polymer film, rather than a conventional optical prism.

Image quality and capture

The range includes FBI PIV- and Appendix F-certified models that capture 500 PPI fingerprint images from dry and wet fingers.

Mobility and integration

Compact, lightweight scanners support office use and mobile work, with recognition software available for system integration.

Artificial-finger resistance

The sensing principle helps reject artificial fingers made from paper, rubber, gelatin, silicone and latex.
