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."
