    Scanning and reading IDs
    Let's see first the most exciting part: how Osmond scans an ID document. To demonstrate this, I can use any type of internationally accepted travel documents, like passports, visas or also sovereign identification documents, such as national ID cards, drivers licenses etc. - they all fit well onto Osmond's scanning window.
    How about reading an ID card, without any digital data. Just place the ID on the window and it immediately starts scanning - as you can see it here on the integrated OLED display. And it's done! Osmond is that fast: now you have all the printed data digitally extracted, plus, the scanned images under various illuminations. Where would you like to check the results? Osmond shows its status on its OLED display, so you will get immediate feedback, while you can also use the accompanying software if you'd rather check the details on another device like a computer or tablet. And even on your smartphone - here is mine, which has just received the scanning results - this feature works with any of the network-enabled models.
    Osmond also has a contact chip reader that can read both contact and dual interface cards. To read the data stored in the contact chip, insert the card into the slot on the side of Osmond, and the data will be read out in the blink of an eye.
    Let's continue with a more complex scanning task: reading and authenticating an e-passport, which has a digital RFID chip inside. Open it to its data page, place it on the scanner and, thanks to the hands-free scanning feature, I can do whatever else I want during the process, as it doesn’t need me to change its positioning. It comes in handy particularly when reading e-passports with RFID chips, a task which usually takes several seconds. It's done: the data is extracted, both the printed and digital, and the authenticity of the passport has been successfully verified.
    Let’s take a closer look at the scanning process.
    Though the user experience for scanning is simple and quick - it is quite a thorough process. What’s happening inside the system during these seconds, you may be wondering? Ready for some interesting insights?
    First of all, if you place the ID on the scanner and it just does not recognize that a document is present - that’s because it is smart enough to scan only when the document has been properly positioned, to avoid any blurred images. The helpful integrated OLED display lets you know when the scanning has started.
    The scanning is actually a parallel process among multiple tasks: imaging, OCR, chip reading and authentication - all optimized to run at the same time, to minimize scanning speed.
    The device starts by taking images of the document using various illuminations. As soon as it has the infrared image, which is the ideal one for Optical Character Recognition, the software starts extracting text, utilizing an OCR engine whose intelligence relies upon hundreds of thousands of ID documents to achieve an outstanding accuracy of 99.98%/character. Some of the text information is also used to open the RFID chip content. Now, the RFID is being read while the device takes further images and performs authentication as well. These parallel procedures ensure that the scanning is performed in the shortest possible time.
    How does the system authenticate IDs? It relies on printed data, digital data and various illumination sources - the result you get is an outcome summary of multiple checks. Using special illuminations like infrared and UV, Osmond checks the paper’s material, ink, and security patterns using a library of genuine documents. It also performs data consistency checks between the printed and digital data, and is also capable of checking minute details such as embossed/tactile elements using oblique light or detailed background graphics and microprints. You see, Osmond makes no compromise when it is about checking the authenticity of an ID. And the good news is that it is not rocket science to get such a system up and running.

    Hi, the lamp behind scanner glass only blinking, it's not showing any image result.
    I've done with calibration on full page reader, then try on authentication checker still not showing any images of document scanned.
    Please advice
