The app works by first using the camera to scan the passport’s data page, a step that is needed because the key used for reading the embedded chip is constructed out of the visible printed passport data. Then it will read and verify the embedded chip and display the extracted information.
Here is a 30 second demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTdpOcG1NSw
If you want to try it out, just download the demo app. Feel free to use an invalid passport and/or use the app on airplane mode so that you feel comfortable.
