    As a multi-functional full-page scanner with a large scan area, the PENTA Scanner is suitable for reliable reading of many documents such as IDs, passports, driver’s licenses and lots more.

    Its high-quality scan technology delivers first-class image quality and guarantees efficient work processes. Additional features/equipment are available optionally. In this way, you can set up PENTA Scanner entirely to suit your individual needs and requirements:

    Various light sources

    By default, the device is equipped to work with visible light and infrared light. The optional UV light source enables reliable and complete authentication of the ID by revealing the document’s “hidden” security features.

    OCR technology

    As a standard feature, the device operates using OCR for optical character recognition, reliably reading all data from the machine-readable (MRZ) and visual zone (VIZ).

    Barcode reader

    1D and 2D barcodes can be read either from paper or from digital displays, for example on smartphones.

    RFID

    In order to read RFID chips (Radio Frequency Identification) on biometric passes, an RFID module can be integrated.

    NFC

    For contactless data capture, the terminal can be equipped with an NFC module (Near Field Communication). This leaves you ideally prepared for future requirements as well.

    A bidirectional swipe reader on the front of the device for reading magnetic strip cards.
