Dual-video spectral comparator Regula 4307
The device is intended for advanced authenticity verification of passports, ID cards, travel documents, passport stamps, banknotes, driving licences, vehicle registration certificates and other vehicle related documents, signatures and handwritten records, paintings, revenue stamps and other security documents.
The device is made as a single unit for desktop use. It is used with a PC (model Regula 4307MC.XХХХ is supplied with Built-in PC) and fully controlled through “Regula Forensic Studio” software interface (supplied with a unit). The video spectral comparator enables to capture, process and store digital images of examined objects. All models are equipped with a hyperspectral imaging module, modules for reading MRZ, RFID chips, hidden image (IPI), 1D and 2D barcodes. Regula 4307 is supplied with a Spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4147, information reference systems “Passport“, “Autodocs“, “Currency” (Brief versions).
Regula 4307 has a set of light sources of visible, infrared, ultraviolet spectral ranges and imaging filters used for carrying out forensic examinations.
The comparator can optionally be equipped with a high resolution spectrometer, a light source for anti-Stokes luminescence, an XY translation stage, a built-in PC.
