1. Introduction
The Gemalto Intelligent Document Reader AT10Ki is the result of over 20 years’ experience in designing
travel document readers for the most demanding customers and environments. With built-in high-
performance processing and networking the AT10Ki inspects, authenticates or captures data from
electronic travel and identity documents quickly and reliably in cloud and virtual computing environments.
The Intelligent “I” series readers include an embedded Arm®processor running Linux®meaning that for
networked mode all the document processing is carried out on the reader. Ready for the cloud the
AT10Ki uses web style encrypted JSON messaging to simplify app development, deployment and
maintenance. For the customer this means:
The AT10Ki can connect to any mobile device, phone or tablet
The reader can be used in pool mode connecting to multiple devices
A single computer can connect to multiple readers
Flexible install options
Lower development and life time IT costs
Onboard direct connections to software as a Service (SaaS) back-ends
The AT10Ki provide a complete integrated system including reader, on-board application, OS, device
management, network protocols and security. There are flexible installation options using WiFi, Ethernet
(with Power Over Ethernet) and USB3 which enable mobile and fixed point workstations.
With its compact size yet high quality optics it can image travel documents using three light sources and
has a Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) interface for reading eDocuments in one action. The AT10Ki
can automatically capture the machine readable zone (MRZ) data, images and chip data from a variety of
personal identification documents, including ePassports, passports, visa and other travel documents as
well as decoding barcodes from documents such as boarding passes.
The reader’s small footprint and its ability to image challenging documents in brightly lit conditions with
minimal CPU loading on the host PC makes it ideal for use by immigration control, airlines, banks, hotels,
and casinos. The readers have no motorized moving parts to ensure maximum reliability.
The design of the AT10Ki is based on detailed and exhaustive analysis of field experience and numerous
deployed projects. With a new “landing lights” LED feedback arrangement and document hold down clip it
naturally encourages the correct placement and use of the reader, regardless if the user is left or right
handed, maximising first time read rate for faster customer processing.
Gemalto has created a new stylish look that will fit into the décor of the most upmarket customer facing
service desks.
