Ready-to-Use UI
The Ready-to-Use (RTU) UI v2 for MRZ scanning offers a pre-built, user-friendly interface for seamlessly integrating MRZ scanning capabilities into applications. Designed to detect, read, and extract data from the MRZ sections of documents like passports, visas, and ID cards etc, this solution combines precision and performance with minimal integration effort.
The RTU UI v2 is not only optimized for fast and accurate recognition but also provides extensive customization options, allowing developers to tailor the interface and behavior to match specific app workflows and branding. Its advanced scanning ensures reliable results even in challenging conditions, such as low light or tilted document angles, making it an ideal choice for industries requiring robust identity verification or automated document processing.
By leveraging the RTU UI v2, developers can deliver a streamlined, professional-grade MRZ scanning experience with enhanced usability and efficiency.
Although the main idea of the RTU UI is to provide simple-to-integrate and simple-to-configure components, its customization capabilities are numerous and should suit most of your needs. To achieve an even higher degree of customization, you can implement a custom UI and business-logic using our Classic UI Components.
