Mobile Workstation Regula 8304

Regula 8304 is designed as a mobile complex in a protective case. It consists of the following major parts: a laptop (model is selected at customer’s request), a built-in optical document reader, a built-in light table, a spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4177 supported by Regula Forensic Studio software and a compact device Regula 1019.01. The workstation can be used as portable (powered by a battery pack) or stationery (powered from the AC mains) equipment.

The workstation document reader enables to capture images in white, infrared, ultraviolet, coaxial illumination and to read data from RFID tags. Regula 8304 is optionally equipped with a fingerprint scanner. The workstation operation is controlled via Regula Document Reader SDK.

Workstation Operation

• The optical reader automatically detects a document in the reader slot.
• Images of the document in functional illumination modes are formed. At the same time data from an RFID tag is read out.
• A fingerprint is scanned.
• Obtained data are processed by Regula Document Reader SDK.
• The results of processing are available for further use.
• Document authenticity control is carried out using:
  • compact device Regula 1019.01
  • spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4177 together with Regula Forensic Studio software for displaying video on a monitor, device control, saving and processing images
  • object stage with a light transmitting screen

• Capturing and processing images
  • Supported document formats
    • ID-1
    • ID-2
    • ID-3
    • Other documents with maximum size 88×128 mm
  • Document detection sensor
  • Automatic scanning after document detection
  • Elimination of glare from laminate and holograms for white and infrared illumination
  • Compensation of external light hitting during image capture in ultraviolet light (SmartUV)
  • Automatic selection of UV illumination intensity according to the document type
  • Search and cropping of a document image from a general image
• The MRZ detection and recognition
• Recognition and reading 1D and 2D barcodes
• Automatic recognition of a document type
• Processing graphic fields
• OCR of the visual zone
• Reading RFID-tags
• Analyzing and comparing text data
• Automatic authenticity verification of a document
• Advanced document examination using a spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4177 and a compact device Regula 1019.01:
  • Examination on different levels:
    • Protection of the document basis
      • Security fibers, planchetes, security threads, holograms, foil stamping, pole feature, transparent vanish coating, etc.
    • Printing methods
      • Intaglio: texts, guiloche frames, rosettes and vignettes, microprinting, latent images and moire patterns, signs for the visually impaired, blind embossing, colour shifting ink, including OVI with embossing and latent images, etc.
      • letterpress: serial numbers, texts, barcodes, etc.
      • offset printingincluding Orlov and rainbow printing: texts, microprinting, moire patterns, background and anti-copy patterns, etc.
      • screen printing: security features with optically variable effects, etc.

    • Complex security features
      • Security features with IR-metameric ink
      • Special polymer coating of security laminates
      • Metallized coating
      • Laser engraving
  • Additional examination of
    • Fragments of document images depending on the degree of absorption or reflection of IR light
    • Document alterations such as erasure, etching etc.
    • Traces of signature forgery
    • Extraneous lines (do not originally belong to the examined object) that are performed with IR opaque inks
    • Blurred, crossed out entries, texts and images
    • Document mechanical defects such as cuts, tears, folds, etc.
