In this article you will learn how the MOBILE SCAN SDK enables rapid development of secure mobile scanning solutions with built-in privacy and seamless integration capabilities. You will discover how this powerful and field-proven SDK supports multi-platform development while meeting the highest compliance standards, as evidenced by its successful implementation at the Swiss police force and use by 19,000 police officers.
Build Mobile Scanning Solutions With the MOBILE SCAN SDK

The MOBILE SCAN SDK is technically mature and field-tested, allowing you to create your own mobile scanning solutions quickly and efficiently. Years of development and real-world deployment have refined the MOBILE SCAN SDK into a reliable foundation that eliminates common development challenges and accelerates time-to-market for scanning applications.
This allows you to add scanning functionality to your app in a short time. The plug-and-play architecture means developers can focus on customization and business logic rather than building core scanning, OCR and data capture functionality from scratch.
The MOBILE SCAN SDK can be easily integrated into existing IT environments and processes, and the design and usability can be flexibly adapted. The modular design allows seamless integration with current systems while providing complete flexibility to customize user interfaces, workflows, and data processing pipelines to match specific functional and organizational requirements.
OVD Kinegram provides comprehensive support including documentation, code examples, and personal support. This complete support ecosystem ensures smooth implementation with detailed technical guides, practical code samples, and direct access to experienced engineers who understand the intricacies of developing a mobile scanning solution.
Focus on Security, Compliance and Data Privacy
The MOBILE SCAN SDK focusses on security and privacy, is GDPR compliant, supporting you in achieving best possible data protection. Built-in privacy controls and data handling protocols provide the foundation for compliance with European General Data Protection Regulation requirements and other international privacy frameworks. This compliance foundation enables the development of mobile scanning solutions that maintain privacy protection throughout the entire data lifecycle. Organizations can confidently deploy scanning applications knowing that the acquired data and extracted information are processed according to the highest privacy standards and regulatory requirements.
Multi-Platform Support for Maximum Flexibility
The MOBILE SCAN SDK always works completely offline and is available for both iOS and Android platforms. This dual-platform approach ensures broad device compatibility while the offline functionality maintains data security by processing information locally without requiring cloud connectivity.
The SDK provides comprehensive support for all important international standards including ICAO and ISO specifications. Compliance with ICAO and ISO specifications is crucial because it ensures the technology can reliably and securely process identity documents worldwide.
19,000 Swiss Police Officers Already use the MOBILE SCAN SDK
The MOBILE SCAN SDK is integrated into the DYCOM solution and currently used by 19,000 Swiss police officers in field operations
- to acquire data from identity documents,
- to read vehicle license plates in standing traffic and even to check cars on the move,
- to scan and handle inventory boxes of evidence,
- and much more besides.
This large-scale deployment demonstrates the SDK’s ability to scale and perform reliably under demanding conditions while maintaining security and efficiency standards required for law enforcement applications. The successful implementation across Switzerland’s entire police force validates the SDK’s robustness, scalability, and operational reliability in mission-critical environments.
Stefan Christen, CEO of DYCOM AG, stated: “Integrating the MOBILE SCAN SDK into our existing solution was hassle-free and completed in no time – copy, paste, run!” He also noted: “The MOBILE SCAN SDK transforms the efficiency and security of identity data capture. We see strong potential for continuing and expanding its use, and confidently recommend OVD Kinegram as a trusted partner.”
