enterprise-wide strength.
Scan Interface is a software package, which supports a variety of
industrial scanners, ranging from small Kodak i40 to high-speed
processing monster - Kodak i830.
The application is built to support all features available from the
scanner hardware & many more additional software
enhancements. Some of the available features are: simplex and
duplex scanning, image enhancement facilities, barcode
processing, flexible scanning profiling (based on image type and
quality), pre- and post-scanning document classification, quality
control and various output formats.
The application is designed with a simple, controlled interface,
easy navigation and configuration.
Controlled by the configuration file, this package can be deployed
in minutes by our support team or your computer specialist, once
again, enabling your company to control and preserve valuable
information.
SBimage COLD module is designed to provide the company with the
efficient mechanism of archiving electronic report-type of
information. The COLD processing module receives the electronic
print-stream from line-of-business application. This stream is
electronically parsed and the indexing information is extracted. The
print-stream is stored electronically in a text format, which
minimizes storage requirement.
The document is reconstructed with the electronic template once
recalled by the user. In essence, there is only one template image
is stored for the entire document class.
The module provides full-text searching facility on the line data. The
final output can be configured and represented as text, PDF, colour
JPG or XML formats, depending on complexity of the incoming file.
The module also provides a flexible plug-in facility to convert
information received in UNIX or Linux formats. This allows for
possibility of integration with any operating system.
This COLD solution assumes no manual intervention with the
received documentation, the files are processed automatically from
the beginning to the end.
Utilizing this sub-system provides your users with the facility to
access archived information and recall the document under 5
seconds.
This sub-system can also be utilized to match your line-of-business
information versus received and scanned documentation.
SBimage WEB extension module provides an easy-to-navigate
Internet interface which grants access to stored documentation via
the Internet. This module inherits all the security permissions
available within the system.
Besides the document retrieval, the module provides the document
upload facility, which will enable your clients or branches to submit
their documents directly into the system utilizing the power of the
Internet.
Highly customizable user-interface will provide you with the ability
to modify the application to fit the corporate look-and-feel.
Open-ended architecture allows integration into the module from
your custom Intranet, Extranet and Internet applications.
SBimage Web module is built based on Microsoft technologies and
can be hosted on your existing IIS server on the remote server.
Standard extension points allow development of custom features
such as validation of specific document indexing process.
Bearing in mind the growth of the Internet usage in South Africa
and African continent, expansion of the web-enabled applications
and people’s acceptance of the new technologies, the Internet
imaging is no longer a nice to have component.
SBimage provides an easy to understand and implement Application
Programming Interface. This set of tools allows developers to
integrate imaging into existing Line of Business Applications in
days, not month. This framework provides connectivity to the
database, access to the repository, image retrieval and
manipulations.
This framework can be easily integrated with VB6 and .NET
solutions. It extends the standard security model, and follows all
principles of SBimage.
SBimage has been successfully integrated with leading workflow
solutions such K2.NET, Mindkey and StaffWare as well as a range
of in-house developed thick client and web-based solutions.
The solution can act as a stand-alone system as well as be
integrated into other applications. The API set also allows our
development team to re-use the components and achieve rapid
application development based on your needs.
Our company also can provide assistance in the development,
being a software development house, we re-utilize our
components to deliver based on your requirement. We can also
provide consulting services to your development team, so you
keep control of the intellectual property in-house.

Set SBIimage = CreateObject(SBimageSDK.Application)
Call SBIimag.Initialise”demo”,”demo”,”imaging”)
Set ClassTypes = SBIimage.GetDocTypes
FileName = SBIimage.RetrieveFile(UniqueReference 1, Path
