Technology Overview

What is Passport OCR?

Passport OCR is a technology that converts passport images or scans into digital text, allowing applications to automatically extract and process passport information quickly and accurately.

Identity Verification with NFC Technology

Pixl uses secure NFC chip reading for quick and reliable identity verification. The solution enables seamless onboarding, 24/7 availability, cost-effective operations and accurate identity validation.

Core Benefits of Pixl Passport SDK:

  • Reads MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) for fast, error-free data extraction
  • Extracts data directly from PDF, JPEG and PNG formats
  • Supports passports in multiple languages for global accessibility
Key Technologies

Core Systems in Passport SDK

Comprehensive passport capture and data validation architecture built for B2B SaaS applications.

NFC-Based Verification

Reads data directly from the passport RFID chip, ensuring accurate, non-tampered information and eliminating issues caused by poor camera scans or manual entry.

NFC Chip Biometric Match

MRZ Reading & Validation

Extracts and validates information from the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ), ensuring strict compliance with ICAO Doc 9303 international standards.

MRZ Scan ICAO 9303

Document Liveness Checks

Verifies physical security features such as holograms, watermarks and security threads to detect fake, photocopied, or altered passports.

Holograms Spoof Detect

Document Capture

Intelligently assists users during mobile or web capture. Automatically detects document borders, aligns rotation, adjusts perspective and optimizes contrast to ensure reliable data extraction of names, numbers and photographs.

Auto-Capture Perspective Deskew

Automatic Document Type Detection

Automatically identifies whether the scanned document is a passport photo page, an ID card, a visa sticker, or a booklet page, applying the correct parsing models dynamically.
