Is an Android application that utilizes the Near Field Communication (NFC) chip to read electronic documents such as passports and ID cards that comply with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards.
This app comes with features that allow for pre-filling input fields, such as passport number, date of expiry, and date of birth by taking a photograph of the ID where MRZ is visible. Additionally, the app supports returning the photo as a Base64-encoded image.
Available data keys:
firstName- StringlastName- Stringgender- Stringstate- Stringnationality- Stringphoto- Bitmap
To use the ReadE-DocOnline/ElectronicDocs app, you will need to have an electronic document that is ICAO compliant and a device capable of use NFC. You can then follow these steps:
- Open the app on your Android device.
- Take a photograph of your e-passport or e-id where MRZ is visible.
- Hold the electronic document against the NFC chip on your device.
- The app will automatically scan the document and display the information contained therein.
