IRIS introduces high resolution camera scanners

September 27, 2019

IRIS, an information management technology provider, has launched two scanners: IRIScan Desk 5 and IRIScan Desk 5 Pro, according to a press release. This technology combines the functions of a high-resolution camera and an ultra-fast scanner. The camera scanner can speed up data collection by shortening the process of inputting information. 

The IRIScan Desk 5 can scan any type of document or book: contracts, invoices, receipts, plans, newspapers and magazines, without the need to cut them, making bound or spiral-bound documents easy to scan. Users can enable automatic page change detection and convert the whole document into a Word, Excel or PDF file. 

It is now possible to scan an entire paperback book by placing it under the camera and holding its edges. The page will be flattened, and the user's fingers will be detected and erased from the final image. The IRIScan Desk 5 can also create video formats. 

The IRIScan Desk 5 Pro can handle bigger documents, and is intended for architects' offices, notaries, hotels, schools and the security sector. It can also scan official documents such as passports and ID cards with just one click. It can also scan business cards or driving licenses, and can recognize 1D to 2D barcodes, as well as QR codes, and export the results to an Excel or text file.
