Has anyone had any good experiences with portable scanners used in conjunction with Tulip to scan documents and import them into the platform via an application? Many thanks
I was just looking for the same thing! In my case I’d like to scan printed package labels for eDHR purposes.
Wondering if taking a picture using a tablet and then converting to pdf scan could also be an option? just brainstorming!
In order to carry out post-processing (OCR, Copilot), but also for auditing reasons, the quality of the document must be better than the result with the camera or vision.
Hey all,
Was anyone able to find a document scanner that would work for this? My use case would be to take a scan of the document (physically pass the paper through it or complete a glass top scan) and have it automatically populate into a Tulip app where Copilot can interpret the results. The current scanner my company uses is a Xerox Versalink C405 (glass tray scanner).
At first, I was going to try a connector but they can only return images. This could still be a viable route but I wanted to ensure the quality of the document by using a scanner. My next route was to try a serial connection but I haven’t been able to find any way of accomplishing that yet.
If anyone has knowledge of how I can connect the Xerox Versalink or recommendations on an alternative scanner that would be awesome.
Thanks!
Hi @rinfantozzi, @youri.regnaud and @Richard-SNN -
I had a couple of chats with folks at Tulip about this, and it seems the simplest (and likely cheapest) option would be to get a 4K USB document camera (around ~$50), connect that to Tulip to take pictures of your docs, and use co-pilot to extract the relevant items.
It sounds like @rinfantozzi you guys already have a document scanner, so maybe this isn’t ideal, but given the cameras are cheap, would this be an option you could consider?
