By Jake Slawetsky, Industry Analysts Inc. – The recent partner event held by Kodak Alaris around the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club was a captivating experience that showcased the company’s diverse offerings. The tour of the Kodak Alaris facility in Rochester, NY, provided a deeper understanding of their robust operations, from hardware and software development to their proficient scanners. The company’s organization was noted, split into two major sectors: photo printing and scanning. Their team, comprising of over 1000 people, stands as a testament to their industry footprint.
One key product highlighted during the event was Kodak Info Input Solution. This software leverages artificial intelligence and cloud-based engines from tech giants like Google and Azure. It boasts driverless scanning capabilities, eliminating the need to install any drivers on the computer to carry out network scans. Notably, the software can process any type of document, in any language or handwriting, providing a percentage confidence for the results. This utility, coupled with its competitive cost, underlines the software’s potential as a valuable solution for many businesses.
Kodak Alaris distinguishes itself as one of the only FADGI (Federal Agencies Digital Guidelines Initiative) certified 3-star manufacturers, a significant accomplishment given that government records are destined for NARA (National Archives and Records Administration). By integrating cloud-based extraction engines from Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and ABBYY, the company reinforces its commitment to cutting-edge technology. Additionally, the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club provided attendees an enjoyable diversion. This unique blend of technology overview and PGA Championship celebrations certainly marked the event as memorable and informative.
