Technology

Embedded controller

Atom Quad-Core processor running on a 7-inch multi-touch screen (800×480 pixels).

Contex CleanScan CIS

Contex CleanScan technology uses custom CIS modules equipped with dual-sided LED lighting and a Dual Diffusion system.

Contex CFR (Color Fringe Removal)

Since CIS systems illuminate sequentially in red, green, and blue (RGB), color fringing can naturally occur. With its advanced filtering technology, CFR removes this issue. Contex holds a patent for its Color Fringe Removal (CFR) technology.

Multiple exposures per scan line

Contex scanners have the option to digitize each scan line multiple times which will reduce image noise even further. Scanning with minimum 4 exposures per scan line ensures FADGI compliance.

SmartShare

Through Ethernet, SmartShare lets all users in a workgroup operate the scanner directly from their own computer.
