In 2013 our founders, two specialists in automation technology, met a document expert from the Austrian ministry of the interior. Combining their technical and document expertise background, the idea of Doculus Lumus®, a mobile document checking device, was born. The goal was to unite all needed functionalities for border guards in a high-quality device, which also would withstand the rough day-to-day work on the road in a train or at the airport.
What started as a passion project within the first company charismaTec OG, the Doculus Lumus GmbH was founded 2022 to specifically supply these devices to the document security industry worldwide, providing experts with the right tool to See the Truth Inside passports, ID cards, security printings, labels, or banknotes.
Doculus Lumus® is completely developed and manufactured in Graz, Austria, assembled by a local serial manufacturer who hires 70% of handicapped people.
Now, many years after starting with the first lot of devices, we look back on over 25.000 devices sold. With individual options and colors we cater to the needs of border guards, police officers, banknote and security printers, customs, immigration offices, social benefit departments, embassies and other governmental entities and international organizations.
