Platform-Agnostic Custom Solutions
Traditional scanners require PC-based scanner drivers and applications compatible with those drivers to talk to the scanner. Since the scanner protocol is inside Visioneer VAST Network© scanners, applications can be built to talk directly to the scanner without a driver, from PCs and Macs to browser-based cloud apps and mobile phones and tablets. This opens up a world of solutions for software developers, system integrators, and IT teams.
Application Developer Toolkit
TWAIN Direct.org provides open-source Software Development Kits (SDK) for developers looking to build custom capture apps, or add scanning functionality to existing applications and workflows in Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android operating systems. The TWAIN Direct RESTful API is compatible with contemporary coding languages, providing support for a broad range of development environments. End users can then directly scan from these custom applications, whether they’re running on a browser, mobile device, or PC/laptop.
