Capturing a signature from a handheld unit

Frank Taylor and Karen Tellef: Capturing a signature from a handheld unit and scanning back documents

Frank and Karen demonstrated an application they developed for Araho Transfer that enables the capture of signatures from handheld units. The application uses VB code to perform the actual signature-capture event. The signature is converted into a bitmap file which is stored on a central server.

It took a good bit of research to find the equipment that best fit the needs of the project. They settled on Fujitsu 5650C Scanners along with the bundled software Virtual ReScan by Kofax.

By taking advantage of today’s technology, with R:BASE as the centerpiece, Araho Transfer has made significant strides in their transition to a paperless office. Impressive indeed!
