SAES-1800

Optical scanner unit designed to register and tally, with maximum security, the votes marked on electoral ballots.

Key benefits

• Over 99,9999% accuracy.
• Supports any type of mark such as circles, crosses, etc, however, COMELEC decided that the minimum shaded area of the oval should be 50% and thus the voter is recommended to completely fill it out.
• Both sides of the ballot can be read at the same time
• 100% transparent. The optical scanner records a digital image of each ballot and adds to it a log entry clearly indicating how the system processed that specific ballot, therefore reducing the error margin.
• The scanner can read both sides of the ballot at the same time.
• The ballots can be inserted in any way, optimizing the voting time. 
• The machine operates on 220V AC power, and has a backup battery that guarantees operational continuity in case of blackouts. 
• Easy maintenance.
