Hand-held Video Microscope for Analyzing Secutag® Product Codes:
Easy to Use Compact and Lightweight Design Dual Magnification Portable and Versatile MicroReader is a universally versatile hand-held video microscope specially developed to allow you to identify the color codes of SECUTAG® product protection particles quickly and easily. Indeed, the range of applications for the MicroReader go far beyond simply identifying SECUTAG® codes and provide an exciting array of additional uses, particularly in the examination of tiny structures often only measuring several µm.
Additional external devices are unnecessary for using the MicroReader because illumination, camera and electronics are integrated into the portable casing. The MicroReaders power supply and video signal are combined into one single cable linked to a computer or monitor. Since the MicroReader does not require an external power supply it is highly portable allowing you to use it while on the move in conjunction with a portable PC or laptop.
The integrated dual magnification means that you can switch between a low power magnification power of 75x, which is suitable for a general overview of the object, and a very high power magnification of 650x which is used to examine fine details. This eliminates the need for changing objective lenses and saves you time. Naturally this is a significant advantage to you. Using the low power, overview magnification level you can quickly and easily locate the SECUTAG® particle on the product. Once you have located the particle, simply switch to the high power, detail magnification to read the code. The MicroReader features a contact objective lens which can be set up directly on the product to be examined. An interchangeable slide protects the MicroReader from damage and also protects the product from contamination.
The compact design of the MicroReader makes it one of the smallest and lightest hand-held microscopes to feature integrated illumination and is simple and reliable to use - and not just in mobile applications.
Applications
The MicroReader really proves its worth through the ease of use with which you can read even the smallest SECUTAG® color codes and particles. It is precisely for this type of application that the MicroReader was developed. And what is more, there are other potential applications for the unit making it a versatile and flexible analysis instrument. These additional applications include, for example, surface analysis, determin-ing grain sizes or the inspection of soldering points. The technical possi-bilities of the MicroReader mean it is also destined for use in securing of evidence and the examination of tiny microorganisms
User-specific Software
MicroReader features our own software developed to allow the clear and automatic evaluation of SECUTAG® codes in a matter of seconds.
This is made possible through intelligent image processing. The software can also be enhanced and modified for use in other areas. MicroReader can also be supplied with a standard software application to allow you to edit and manage the microscope images.
MicroReader is particularly suitable for use by customs personnel and criminal investigators in cases where rapid inspection of product protection codes is necessary.

2. Microscope
SECUTAG® can be read with any kind of microscope, from a magnification of 40x.3. Automatic readers
In the near future four groups of automatic SECUTAG®-CODE-READER devices will be available for reading the colour codes.a) A low-priced appliance, for small businesses. This reader is for identifying cheque cards and credit cards. However, this device will only recognize whether there is a SECUTAG® mark or not.
b) This is a module. This type is meant to be integrated into cash-point systems, cash machines at banks, and for identifying cheque and credit cards, even bank notes. It is a little cleverer however, since it can recognize the credit institution in question!
c) This group is already available as a prototype, and includes portable readers. These devices may be used for the following purposes: - In industry, for detecting product piracy, re-imports, and for avoiding unjustified claims for compensation based on product liability etc. - Use by the police and detectives for detecting forged documents as to person, shipping documents of stolen cars and goods, and for clarifying felonies/criminal offences, and for combatting crime in general. - Use by the Customs etc., for detecting product piracy, stolen cars, or the illicit cross-border traffic in goods; also other types of customs offence.
d) This section contains a high-speed reading module operating at 80 code identifications per second, and is incorporated into existing product and processing machinery, as with group 2.
This module can be used for the following purposes:
- In industrial production, so that each part to be protected will have a readable code identification.
- The Federal Bank, the banks in general and in government printing, for integration into securities counting machines, for recognizing genuine securities.
- In printing houses, for inserting into printing and checking machines that produce security labels and printed matter.
