Benefits of Employing DCV

  • Simplicity and Scalability with Modular, Pluggable Components – The Dynamsoft Capture Vision architecture is built on a modular framework, allowing you to integrate only the components you need for your specific project. This ensures simplicity by avoiding unnecessary features while providing the flexibility to scale and customize your solution as business needs evolve.

  • High Performance with Shared Computations - When multiple components are integrated into your application, Dynamsoft’s architecture ensures that these tasks are processed efficiently by leveraging shared computation resources. This reduces the computational load and accelerates processing times, as common processes like image enhancement or barcode decoding can be handled concurrently across modules to deliver high performance across diverse environments.

  • Bidirectional Data Interoperability - DCV enables real-time interaction and modification of intermediate results, such as images, detected lines, and contours, during execution. This flexibility ensures smooth data sharing at various processing stages. Its interoperability with other software systems allows for easy data exchange, breaking down data silos and improving efficiency.

Functional Products

dcv-architecture

Dynamsoft Barcode Reader (DBR)

DBR is an SDK that enables fast and accurate barcode scanning for all common barcode formats. It offers customizable processing parameters to optimize performance for different scenarios.

Dynamsoft Label Recognizer (DLR)

DLR is designed to recognize zonal text or symbols within images, such as price tags, inventory labels, VIN codes, and ID cards. It is ideal for applications requiring reliable label recognition.

Dynamsoft Document Normalizer (DDN)

DDN detects quadrilaterals in images such as document boundaries and normalizes them by performing tasks like cropping, deskewing, and contrast adjustment. The result is an optimized image for further processing such as OCR.

Dynamsoft Code Parser (DCP)

DCP extracts meaningful data from decoded text or bytes, often used to process results from DBR/DLR. It includes built-in parsing for common use cases such as driver’s licenses, passports and customizable rules for specific scenarios.

Dynamsoft Camera Enhancer (DCE)

DCE provides camera control, enhancements and UI configuration for better camera output and integration with other Dynamsoft products. It supports video streaming and allows results to be displayed with additional UI elements.

Real-World Success

On-demand digital Identity Scanning Solution

Intellicheck successfully leveraged Dynamsoft’s solutions to enhance their customer onboarding process to quickly and accurately scan IDs, reducing manual input and improving efficiency. By leveraging Dynamsoft’s scalable and flexible SDKs, Intellicheck was able to create a seamless, automated solution that streamlined their identity verification process, resulting in faster customer onboarding and enhanced security for their clients.

Enhanced Customer Onboarding with Barcode and Text Scanning

Dynamsoft helped First United Bank, one of the largest banking organizations in the Southwest US, build a robust, multi-faceted solution that simplified ID capture and accelerated customer onboarding. Using Dynamsoft SDKs, the account opening process has been cut from 45 minutes to 10, leaving more time for relationship bankers to focus on guiding customers’ financial decisions.

Use Case Applications

Seamless Passport MRZ Recognition

(DCE + DLR + DCP)

Effortlessly extract passport details with the Dynamsoft Capture Vision framework. Capture high-quality images using Dynamsoft Camera Enhancer (DCE), then decode the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) with Dynamsoft Label Recognizer (DLR). Finally, convert the extracted data into a structured, human-readable format with Dynamsoft Code Parser (DCP)—delivering accurate, automated passport scanning for travel, security, and identity verification applications.

Instant VIN Code Scanning

(DCE + DLR)

Simplify vehicle identification with a streamlined VIN code scanning solution. Leverage Dynamsoft Camera Enhancer (DCE) to capture a clear image of the VIN, then let Dynamsoft Label Recognizer (DLR) accurately extract and decode the information. Ideal for automotive inspections, inventory management, and insurance processing, this solution enhances efficiency and accuracy.

Smart Driver’s License Scanning

(DCE + DBR + DCP)

Transform the way driver’s licenses are processed with Dynamsoft Capture Vision. Use Dynamsoft Camera Enhancer (DCE) to snap a clear image, then extract PDF417 barcode data using Dynamsoft Barcode Reader (DBR). Finally, convert raw data into structured, readable details like name and license number with Dynamsoft Code Parser (DCP)—perfect for identity verification, security checks, and seamless customer onboarding.
