Bring the power of recognition, classification, compression and/or

extraction to your application

Currently 4 toolkits for integration/OEM are available:

• Imaging, recognition and compression toolkit: iDRS SDK

• Business card recognition toolkit: CardIris SDK

• Fast Document classification toolkit: Fingerprint SDK

• Intelligent Document Recognition toolkit: IDR SDK


I.R.I.S. not only provides applications and solutions but also wants to let integrators and OEM take advantage of these technologies by offering powerful but easy to use software development kits

Functionality wise, these 4 SDK’s can be subdivided into:

• Image enhancement, pre-processing SDK

• Character Recognition (OCR, ICR, MICR) SDK

• OCR and Document Creation (PDF, HTML, RTF, XPS, ...) SDK

• Barcode Recognition (1D, 2D) SDK

• Compression (iHQC) SDK

• Business Card Recognition (Cardiris) SDK

• Fast Document classification Fingerprint SDK

• Invoice recognition SDK

• Classification/Digital mailroom SDK

• Form recognition SDK

• FreeForm recognition SDK


OCR/MICR/ICR/BC/Compression/Document Creation


• Comprehensive SDK containing all image pre-processing, recognition, formatting and compression technologies that I.R.I.S. has to offer

• Modular architecture allowing you to select only the modules you need

• Multi-platform support – available on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux

• Multi-language support – complexity hidden behind an easy-to-use interface accessible from native C++ or one of the .Net languages (C#, J# and VB.Net)

• Flexible licensing policy – licensing meets your deployment type and size

Latest enhancements• Enhanced OCR Kernel – improved recognition rate for

low resolution images in colour or greyscale

• Enhanced iHQC formatting for low resolution images

• Creation of PDF/A iHQC

• New output formats XPS & XPS iHQC

• New Arabic engine - multifont

• .NET API added.



Business Card RecognitionBusiness Card Recognition

Cardiris SDK

• SDK for scanning and recognizing business cards

• Easy-to-use COM interface – supports VB and .Net languages

• Intelligent field extraction – uses a knowledge database to extract all relevant information like first and last name, city, state, telephone number, job title etc

• Various export possibilities – extracted information can easily be exported to Outlook, Lotus Notes, Excel, XML, iPod and many more

• Support for scanning business cards with the portable IrisCard scanner

Fast Document ClassificationFast Document Classification

Fingerprint classification SDK

• Powerful classification SDK - uses only graphical features to classify documents in milliseconds

• Details and text information are not relevant – Fingerprint can also be used with bad quality OCR documents like faxes

• Uses training to create repositories of learned page layouts

• Can deal with large amount of stored fingerprints without affecting classification speed

• Easy to use COM interface

Fast Document ClassificationFast Document Classification

Intelligent Document Recognition - • Powerful all-in-one recognition and classification SDK

• Fits all document types – freeform, invoices, forms etc

• Predefined solution packages - only need to load appropriate configuration to create a fully-fledged document processing application

• Provides state-of-the-art classification technologies – classify your documents based on graphical layout (Fingerprint) or context analysis

• Very easy-to-use – just a few functions independent of the document type

• Multi-language support – elegant interface supporting native C and .Net

Solution packages – ready to use out of the box


Solution Package - Accounts PayableCovers invoices with order numbersAble to compare order information with invoice content

Solution Package – FactoringCovers invoices without order information

Solution Package –TaxCovers invoices (credit and debit) and perfectly fits to tax agencies which do invoice processing as a service for their clientsSolution Package – OrdersCovers orders, very often faxes


Solution packages – ready to use out of the box


Solution Package – BankingCovers (classifies) all customer related documents at a bank like accounts opening, signature card, credit, mortgage, ..Solution Package - Personalized PostCovers all documents at the mailroom which can be sorted to a person (search the name) or a department (classify documents like invoices or orders) by keyword

Solution Package - HR (Human Resources)Covers (classifies) all HR related documents like curriculum vitaes, application letters…

Solution Package – HealthcareCovers invoices for healthcare insurances from hospitals, doctors, pharmacies ...



1. Init(): initialize the IDR kernel

2. LoadEnvironment(): set the current environment for the IDR kernel.

3. InitializeDocument(): initialize document before actual processing

4. LoadPage(): load the document page

5. ProcessDocument(): process the document. Result is provided as an easy to parse XML stream

6. CloseEnvironment(): close the current environment

7. LoadMasterData(): load master data in the Fuzzy DB.

8. CompileMasterData(): compile the new master data in the Fuzzy DB

9. ExecuteCommand(): send specific command to Solution Package.

Very easy to use: only 9 functions calls!


Only a few lines of code required – C# sample

static void main(){ string workingFolder = “C:\\work”; string config = “C:\\config”; string fileToProcess = “C:\\temp\\test.tif”; Kernel kernel = null; kernel.Init(workingFolder, String.Empty); kernel.LoadEnvironment(config, “noclient”); kernel.InitializeDocument(1, null); kernel.LoadPage(File.ReadAllBytes(fileToProcess)); byte[] resultOut = null; byte[] paramClientOut = null; kernel.ProcessDocument(ref resultOut, ref paramClientOut);}

resultOut byte stream contains the result
