OCR500 Insertion Passport OCR Reader for Kiosks

OCR500 passport reader module

The OCR500 passport reader is a well-proven insertion document reader designed for integration into self-service kiosks where fast reliable passport and travel document data capture is required. The OCR500 is widely used in airport kiosks around the world.

Once a document is inserted into the passport reader face down, the reader gently clamps the document. The holding force is sufficient to alert the user that a read is in progress and prevents document movement during image capture, optimising first-time read accuracy and providing assurance to the user that a read is in progress.

The OCR500 reads accurately and quickly first time. The passport reader is intuitive and simple to use for untrained or inexperienced users, and is suitable for use by the general public. The clamp action and the status light gives the user direct tactile and visual feedback, making the OCR500 the easiest and most reliable passport reader in its class.

 

Access' advanced passport OCR reading software provides a very fast read and is suitable for integration with all airport host systems.
