ECW users please Note: going forward you need to install a maintenance SDK purchased yearly at Acuant .com/ECW
The SnapShell uses a 3 mega-pixel camera built into its base to "snap" high quality digital images of ID cards (up to 600 dpi), populating the card's text into appropriate fields within 2-3 seconds. The easy-to-use SnapShell ID scanner uses a USB 2.0 connection and features no moving parts while requiring no calibration, making it a low maintenance solution that allows users to simply place their card face down on the window and allow the system to do the rest.
