ABSTRACT:
A recognition device for authenticating documents is disclosed. The recognition device comprises a reading head for optically scanning the documents. The reading head includes at least two modules of substantially identical construction, each of which is provided with a line of photosensors. The reading head also includes means for determining the spectral sensitivity of the modules. The recognition device also includes a conveying system for providing relative movement between the reading head and the documents being scanned. An evaluation means correlates signals provided by the photosensors with prestored values to control a sorter which sorts the documents based on their authenticity or falsehood.
