Version 1.0 

General 

 

The PKT 4000 is a document 
scanner and imager ideally 
suited for reading the following 
document types: 

 

Passports 

 

ID cards 

 

Visa 

 

ePassports 

 

Barcodes 

The device has been designed to read both 1D and 2D barcodes and the MRZ (Machine 
Readable Zone) of travel documents, typically Passports and ID Cards. An additional feature 
of the PKT 4000 is the ability to capture pictures from documents, again typically being 
Passport images and photographs.  An optional RFID reader communicates with the 
embedded RFID chip within ePassports, providing the capture of ePassport data along with 
digital image information such as facial profiles etc. The connection of the PKT 4000 is via a 
USB interface, noting that device drivers are required in order to allow the various PKT 4000 
device modules to function correctly. Our recommendation would be that you install all the 
device drivers before working with the SDK and the PKT 4000.
