The new ultracompact ePassport Reader 
with proprietary technology for faster reading

Passport number and photograph are captured in 

0.1 seconds, with processed data output, in 

approximately 1 second. IC data from Japanese 

passports is read in 2 seconds. Since conventional 

ePassport readers require PCs to process OCR 

and BAC

 data, their processing time depends on  

PC performance. Panasonic ePassport Readers 

comes with embedded circuitry to handle OCR and 

BAC processing, eliminating the need for PCs and 

making them easier to install wherever needed. 

Faster Reading

1-second for text, 2-seconds 
for IC data

Compact & Simple Design

W200 x D190 x H127mm compact dimensions make it easy to install on 

even the narrowest counter. To reduce burden on operators, the reading 

surface height is only 115mm.

The world's smallest class, ePassport Reader 

Rich array of capabilities

Comes with  UV and IR image capture and 1 and 2-dimensional 

barcode reading capabilities to support a wider range of applications.

The passport can be held a few millimeters above the glass, held upside 

down, or skewed. Image angle and rotation are automatically adjusted to 

ensure accuracy.

Accurate OCR even if passport positioning is sloppy

Ordinary eMRP readers require an annoying cover to exclude ambient 

light. The wide dynamic range of the Panasonic sensor eliminates the 

need for a cover.  

Easy-to-use light-tight coverless design

The IC reader module has been used in more than 200,000 installations. 

Its design reflects the depth of Panasonic expertise in the OCR and IC 

feature domains. Its advanced features allow it to read even passports 

that make not conform precisely to ICAO standards. 

A wealth of experience and expertise

OCR and contactless IC reader modules were developed and 

manufactured exclusively by Panasonic optimize processing for faster 

reading speed. 

Proprietary technology boosts reading speed

In the world's smallest class configuration, the JT-P100 ePassport Reader includes color and IR/UV image capture 
and barcode reading capabilities. Its broad range of applications includes strict but efficient immigration control, 
aircraft boarding procedures, and hotel guest management.
