How does this procedure come off compared to the ICE? Can it be used in the batch modus? First, the essential difference between both proceedings should be mentioned: ICE is a proceeding based on the hardware; with an infrared light resource, the original is scanned for detecting eventual irregularities so that dust grains and scratches are detected. This error spots can be then corrected afterwards by the software. Thus, the Digital ICE works by pushing a button, which means there is a status of switched on and off.
