Identifying Authenticity of Documents with Iran-Made Smart Scanner
According to a report by the Iranian Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, Mehdi Hashemi, the managing director of this knowledge-based company pointed to the design, production and commercialization of smart scanners for identifying passports, national ID and other documents in their company and said, “Spending a lot of time to manually register documents information was a challenge in this field; therefore, we decided to design such a system. This device has the capability to read document data without user intervention and using artificial intelligence technology, and it can also recognize fake documents.”
“Speed, accuracy and security are the advantages of the smart scanner device, and the range of use of this device is so wide that in addition to hotels, it can be used in international traffic control, travel agencies, electronic visa issuance centers, traffic control systems, airports and commercial oil tankers,” Hasehmi added.
According to the scientific vice presidency’s report, the director of the knowledge-based company called the speed of the device and capability to read data from Persian and Arabic languages documents as a distinct feature of this domestically-made system as compared to foreign equivalents.
He went on to note that domestically producing the device saves the country a lot of money as imports are prevented. He also said that they have exported their product to Iraq and Afghanistan so far.
“The prices of foreign equivalents of this product are more than two or three times the price of the Iran-made model. This is while out machine has more features,” he concluded.
