This alphanumeric keyboard is the ideal solution for fast and clear input of machine-readable data. Up to three independent readers provide the user with support for fast data entry. The OCR reader for reading ID and similar documen- tation, the magnetic card reader for reading credit cards or access cards, and the (optional) 2D bar- code reader for recording labels, tickets, or similar items. The ergo- nomic design has been selected to achieve optimum adaptation to human motor function.

The two internal readers operate bidirectionally, so that documents and cards can be fed through the reader in both directions. This means that the input device is ergonomic and easy-to-use for both right and left-handed users.
