2024: Recognition of handwritten and printed registration in the passport of the Russian Federation

AI-solution for recognition of handwritten and printed registration in the passport of the Russian Federation developer Smart Engines is used in Raiffeisen Bank. The high accuracy and speed of retrieving the registration address makes the process of opening an account in branches and online even faster and more comfortable. Entering the data of the registration page takes less than 1 second and does not require the use of cloud verifiers. Smart Engines reported this on July 3, 2024.

The client offices of Raiffeisen Bank use Smart Engines passport recognition technologies. The bank employee scans the document and all necessary data is automatically entered into the corresponding fields of the application to be completed. The technical solution allows you to extract data from the main spread of the document, stamps with information about previously issued passports and pages with stamps about registration, including address, registration date and subdivision code.

The Smart ID Engine system automatically recognizes not only printed, but also hand-filled registration in photos, scans and video stream in real time. If there are several stamps on the pages in the passport of the Russian Federation about registration and deregistration, then the system recognizes all of them. The processing time of the registration page on the phone is 0.4 seconds. In server solutions without the use of GPUs, you can recognize dozens of passport spreads per second. This speed is achieved through the use of ultralight or 4.6 bit neural networks.

Integrated technology is an on-premium solution. In the process of recognition, data and images are not transferred to cloud services or other unauthorized persons, which ensures the security of processing personal data for the bearer of documents and business.

Smart Engines recognition technologies are also built into Raiffeisen Bank's mobile application for iOS and Android. With their help, bank clients scan QR codes and phone numbers to pay and make money transfers, and can also update their passport data directly in the application without visiting the office.

2021: Smart ID Engine Implementation

Raiffeisen Bank introduced the Smart ID Engine passport recognition software developed by Smart Engines, which announced this on April 19, 2021. The high accuracy and speed of extracting information from documents makes the process of opening an account in offices more comfortable. The technical solution based on the Smart ID Engine works in the bank's information circuit, which guarantees the security of customers' personal data.

In Raiffeisen Bank departments, safe passport recognition technologies are used to open an account. The bank employee scans the document and all necessary data is automatically entered into the corresponding fields of the application to be completed. As of April 2021, the implemented solution allows you to extract data from the main spread of the document. During recognition, the Smart ID Engine cross-checks the recognized data.

Smart ID Engine is implemented on the basis of proprietary GreenOCR technology. It is based on the results of scientific research by Smart Engines scientists in the field of energy efficient AI. The 8-bit deep neural network computing model used provides high performance AI algorithms and significantly reduces power consumption during recognition. Using the Smart ID Engine, companies can recognize document data in photos, scans, and video streams in real time. The software product toolkit is available for developers to embed in mobile, server and desktop applications.

The simplicity and convenience of the bank's services for the client is our key priority. We have introduced Smart Engines technologies for recognizing certification documents in bank branches in order to speed up the process of opening a bank account. At the same time, the inclusion of the Smart ID Engine software product in the bank's technological stack meets the requirements of information security in terms of processing client data, "says Maria Magdeeva, head of sales channels at Raiffeisen Bank.

Developing AI algorithms, we prioritize for ourselves not only the quality and speed of recognition of passports and other identity cards, but also the safety of the use of AI technologies. Our technologies allow customers around the world to process customer data in offices and during remote service in accordance with international and national standards, - comments Vladimir Arlazarov, Ph.D., CEO of Smart Engines.
