Compatible with Regula’s most recent advanced forensic devices,
including the company’s flagship dual-video spectral comparator,
Regula 4308, Regula Forensic Studio software facilitates manual
examination of handwritten texts, banknotes, travel and identity
documents, collectibles, and more. Supplied in a bundle with
forensic devices and available out-of-the-box, Regula Forensic
Studio can operate all Regula devices in a forensic laboratory,
creating a smooth user experience and allowing for a wide range of
examinations.
The new features and improvements in Regula Forensic Studio
significantly elevate the user experience, as well as the
convenience, speed, and accuracy of forensic examination.
Crucial examination speed and precision enhancements
include:
- A new cross-platform architecture that significantly
streamlines document processing and reporting, and ensures full
compatibility with all popular operating systems, such as Windows,
Linux, and macOS.
- The possibility of creating predefined scenarios (macros)
for repetitive tasks, which makes it possible to automate the
verification process for certain types of documents. For example,
if an expert needs to verify a wad of banknotes, they can
automatically record the sequence of checks (including all the
lighting and filtering techniques) for one banknote, and
auto-repeat it for the rest of the wad. Not only does this feature
streamline the whole process, but also eliminates human-related
errors.
- Fully automated ID verification in mere seconds through
seamless integration with Regula Document Reader SDK, which
instantly recognizes the document type and validates all its data
from MRZs, RFID chips, barcodes, and performs available security
checks.
- Enhanced integration with the Information Reference
System (IRS), which makes it simple to compare an examined
document to its reference image from the database. Thanks to
real-time sync between RFS and the Information Reference System,
the device's active light source is switched to the one used in the
reference sample, and vice versa. This leads to more quick and
efficient examinations.
- Automated banknote residual area measurement, a new
feature that was added as a response to customers’ needs. It uses
banknote references from the Regula IRS to automatically measure
the undamaged area of a banknote and determine if it can be
accepted by the bank.
Key usability enhancements include:
- A new intuitive user-friendly interface.
- Multi-screen support to allow users to drag and drop
application tabs between monitors, which is especially convenient
when working with several images.
- Colored image superimposition, a new feature that
highlights different elements of two images for easier
comparison.
- Pseudocolor visualization, a feature that uses
substitute bright colors to highlight areas within the same color
(like some indistinguishable shades of gray) for better
visualization.
- Automatic detection of Machine Identification Code
(MIC), a new feature that detects a unique yellow-dot pattern color
laser printers and copiers leave on paper sheets. This helps
identify the source of printed documents.
“In the crowded field of ID verification, Regula has
distinguished itself by constantly improving, as well as adopting a
customer-centric approach at the core of our research and
development. The updated Regula Forensic Studio software has become
notably faster and more efficient. It reflects feedback from
external forensic experts and our customers, and incorporates
features designed to address specific use cases and improve
operations. This user-centric approach helps us boost the
functionality of our solutions and meet the evolving needs of our
customers in the most efficient way,” says Ihar Kliashchou, Chief
Technology Officer at Regula.
