BancTec Delivers Enhanced Image Quality Assurance


DALLAS, June 30 /PRNewswire/ --

BancTec, a leading global provider of advanced, high-volume document and
payment processing services and solutions, has made image quality assurance
(IQA) a seamless component of its IntelliScan(R) high-speed document scanning
solutions, thus meeting the dual requirements of verifiable image quality and
high-speed processing. The result is an ability to generate time and cost
savings - without sacrificing image quality - for organizations with large
document processing operations.

Traditionally, organizations have had to verify a percentage of scanned
images in order to meet their document processing quality metrics, from
relatively simple spot-checking, to full review in especially sensitive
industries, such as healthcare. Without an automated way to identify problem
images, these organizations have been reliant on costly, time consuming and
labor-intensive manual review measures.

BancTec's image quality architecture solves this challenge by utilizing
advanced capabilities for image scanning, monitoring and correction to
provide customers with an integrated, end-to-end framework that produces
superior scanned images. Monitoring is key to BancTec's image quality
methodology because it enables the efficient, automatic detection of easily
correctable errors that might go unnoticed by a high-speed scanner operator,
such as folded corners, torn edges or even slight camera obstructions. As a
result, the full benefits of a high-resolution, high-speed scanner can be
realized without significant operator involvement. Organizations can then
have the confidence that they are generating high quality images without the
need for full manual review, and with no disruption in overall efficiency.

"There has been a growing demand for efficient verification of image
quality, without a reduction in processing speed, for all scanned items,"
said Mark Fairchild, chief technology officer, BancTec. "BancTec's
IntelliScan platform helps organizations achieve this result by analyzing all
images - in real-time - as they are captured in order to identify potential
quality issues. The operator has the flexibility to either review and correct
items while scanning a batch, or to have the review done as part of a
post-scan process using a product such as BancTec's Image Sentry(TM)."

The Image Sentry(TM) product complements BancTec's IntelliScan solution
by providing for the ability to review and enhance suspect images after
initial scanning; to conduct a virtual rescan from color or grayscale files;
or to rescan the actual physical documents. The same IQA tests available on
the IntelliScan transport are also available in Image Sentry should images
from other centralized or distributed scanners require verification.

"BancTec's IQA approach significantly automates the quality assurance
process to improve operational efficiency," said Fairchild. "The integration
of scanning, monitoring and correction ensures that organizations have an
end-to-end image quality assurance platform that performs to the industry's
highest standards for all document types."
