iNSIGHT™ OMR Scanner

Available world wideThis scanner is available world wide.

Our most versatile OMR scanner - it's easy to upgrade from OMR to imaging capabilities

The iNSIGHT optical mark read (OMR) scanner is one of the most versatile and efficient desktop scanners available for automated data collection. Its powerful processor delivers fast document throughput and transfers into a variety of off-the-shelf and custom software packages.

Imaging Upgrade

When you want to migrate to imaging capability, all you need to do is upgrade the scanner system cartridge. This is an easy and simple option to upgrade from OMR to imaging data collection capabilities. Today you may be collecting OMR data but in the future, you may want image capabilities – collecting survey comments, essay answers, short-answers, check and X box responses, bar codes, hand print, machine print, image clips, and full-page images. An investment in an iNSIGHT OMR scanner will pay off as your data collection needs grow.

Scans Both Pencil and Pen Marks

Two built-in read modes provide the ability to scan both pencil and pen marked responses from the same scanner. This provides the flexibility to use the same scanner for tests, surveys and other data collection forms marked with pencil and/or ink.

Two models are available, differentiated by their paper feed.
