Abstract
In general, techniques are described for performing surface authentication with a scanning device to authenticate items. The scanning device or “scanner” that includes a bar code reader, a surface reader and a controller may implement the techniques. The bar code reader is configured to read a bar code affixed to an item to determine bar code data. The surface reader is configured to read a surface of the item to determine a representation of the surface. The controller is configured to determine whether the item is authentic based on the bar code data and the representation of the surface and provides an indication that the item has been authenticated based on the determination of whether the item is authentic. In this way, a scanner may perform item authentication based on both the bar code data and the representation of the surface of the item.
