Abstract

Method and device for the characterization and discrimination of banknotes and legal tender documents, which method incorporates the conveyance of the document to be effected along a path on which such document is lit using wide spectrum and/or infrared light sources. The acquisition of images using a linear sensor and the analysis of the coloring of these images. The wide spectrum light source works intermittently during the document analysis stage and continuously during the stand by stage. The wide spectrum lighting means (13) incorporate a concentric reflector (15) and a transparent tube (16) inside which the lamp is encapsulated. The device does further include a linear light sensor (12).
