For the examination of security features on a wide range of breeder documents

VSC 4i - The security document verification system

The VSC 4i range of instruments is designed for the examination of security features on passports, banknotes, identity cards and a wide range of breeder documents. Standard models are operated using simple, push button facia controls. Image processing and archiving may be added using a PC and software.

VSC 4i* enables you to check:

  • UV activated fluorescent features and fibres.
  • Infrared activated anti-Stokes fluorescent features.
  • Watermarks and metallic strips.
  • Retro-reflective images.
  • Holograms and other OVD's.
  • Surface features such as embossed stamps and intaglio printing, using oblique lighting.
  • Variations in the infrared reflectance of inks (IR 'drop-out').
  • Paper quality, by assessing the level of paper fluorescence.
  • Print quality at high magnification.
  • ICAO coded data.
  • Invisibly embedded information.

The high resolution, high magnification imaging system in the VSC 4i also enables an operator to check alterations to a document's construction such as irregularities in the lamination of a photograph or to the binding. And by adding a PC and an image processing system, such as Foster & Freeman's Document Imaging Software Suite, the examiner can enhance images, make measurements of features and compare two documents side by side on a split screen or overlaid. Images are displayed in colour on a 19" monitor at magnifications ranging from x2.8 to x43 which may be permanently recorded by simply adding a video printer.

The VSC 4i range of instruments includes four hardware configurations. A choice of software modules may also be added using a PC or laptop. For more information please contact Foster & Freeman or your local agent.

*Applies to the highest specification model
