This allows you to ensure reliable customer identification before the rental property is handed over. Depending on the product and equipment, DESKO products optimize your workflow with a wide range of functions. How do our checking devices work? The process can be summarized in five steps.
Record data
The scanners use proven technologies such as OCR (Optical Character Recognition), RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) or NFC (Near Field Communication) to capture data from the machine-readable zone (MRZ) or the integrated chip in documents or cards.
Examine information
In conjunction with the corresponding software, defined information such as the age of the ID card holder or the validity period of the document is displayed.
Check authenticity
Based on the specific security features of each ID document, a complete check for authenticity is carried out by our devices and authentication software connected to the PC.
Save results
You can then save all test results, ID card scans and other analyses on your PC, laptop, tablet or other end device in accordance with internal compliance rules and the applicable data protection law, as the scanners can read information from any data carrier.
Use data
Thanks to the connection to your in-house software, the personal data read out can be automatically transferred to your contract forms, among other things.

-
Can the devices read all common national and international ID documents and driver´s licences?
Technically, it is possible, but this depends on various factors. On the one hand, it is crucial whether the document complies with ICAO guidelines. On the other hand, it plays a role whether data from the RFID chip, the machine-readable zone (MRZ) or the visible zone (VIZ) is required.
-
How long does it take for the data to be read out and processed?
This depends on the data to be read (RFID chip or the visible zone (VIZ)) as well as the light sources under which it is captured. Depending on the device model, however, the entire process usually only takes a few seconds.
-
How do I know if it is a fake driver´s licence or ID card?
