Evolis, the French ID card product firm, has introduced two signature pads, Sig100 and Sig200. The products are designed to capture and digitise hand-written signatures, and which complete its range of card printers.
The signature pads, Sig100 and Sig200, are designed to capture and digitize handwritten signatures in high resolution. Sig100 and Sig200 are the makers say for applications requiring a signature as proof of identity or to represent informed consent, including government IDs, business contracts, bank accounts, health care forms and other enrolment forms.
In seconds, the signature is stored for use on ID cards, forms and documents even when away from the office, all digital. The products can also be used to record biometric data (such as handwriting pressure and speed) for forensic purposes. Sig100 and Sig200 are compact and thin and have a large screen with coating, providing a natural writing experience. The signature is displayed in real time on the screen, and for reading there’s a backlit display. The Sig200 model offers a slideshow feature that can display advertising.
Data transfer between the pad and the PC is secured using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption. The pads connect to any computer via a USB port, with no other connection required. They can be plugged in, for mobile use. Optional software is available to create PDF documents that can then be signed electronically. For applications requiring card personalisation via Evolis printers, Sig100 and Sig200 can incorporate a signature directly into the card design.
Product Manager Christophe Peraudeau says: “Evolis is recognised worldwide for its card personalization solutions, and signature pads offer many synergies, both in terms of products and markets.”
