The Passport Reader SDK

The Passport Reader is a travel document reader and analyser system by ADAPTIVE RECOGNITION, which bases on the GX system and provides for software developers an easy-to-program interface through its Application Programming Interface (API). Currently the supported programming languages and the usable interfaces are the followings: C (prapi.h); C++ (Pr22.hpp); Java (Pr.jar); VB.Net, C# (Pr22.dll); VBasic 6, Delphi (prapi.ocx).

This documentation gives a detailed description of the Application Programming Interface (API) of the PR system. It contains the description of definitions, enumerations and functions for the ANSI C programming language.

Basic functionality

The functionality of the Passport Reader is centered upon two base functions. The Capture function takes images of the document at different lightnings and stores the binary data in computer understandable format (bitmap). The Recognize function analyses the taken image and generates text data in computer understandable format (ascii/unicode). These representations can be later inserted in a database or processed by other user programs.

Detailed functionality

The functionality of the Passport Reader is groupped as following:

Next browse the groups list, check the prapi.h for full reference or check the Change Log in the reference manual for differences against the previous versions.
