IRIS RECOGNITION SOFTWARE

Highly secure and easy-to-use in any environment

Close✕

introducing iris recognition technology

Iris is a proven way to identify and authenticate users while maintaining high levels of security. The iris is unique to each human eye and does not change over time, thanks to its expressive and inherent structural properties.

Fingerprints' iris recognition software platform offer a highly secure and easy-to-use authentication and identification technology works for in any environment, with glasses, is mask compliant and it is handsfree and at a distance from the face that is comfortable for the user.

It is far superior to any other practical biometric modality, such as face, voice, and fingerprint.

 

how does it work? 

It is a video-based technology that works by capturing sequences of images of the iris. The sequence is combined into an aggregated image used for enrollment and authentication.

Enroll: Enrollment is required just once, at the point of setting up the application, to use the iris recognition technology. During this process, the irises are scanned and analyzed for unique patterns before being converted into a template. The template is then used for later authentication and can be securely stored on the device in an encrypted, trusted environment. The entire enrollment process is completed in a few seconds.

Authenticate: For authentication the irises are quickly scanned and analyzed for unique patterns to create a template. This template is then compared with the stored template(s) from the enrollment process and when a match exists, the user can be authenticated. The authentication process works for one-to-one and one-to-many user applications, and a specific user will typically be authenticated in less than a second.

Authorize: With an authenticated user and configured user credentials, the authorization process will determine what actions the authenticated user can perform. This could differ between non-authenticated and authenticated users.

Benefits

SECURITY - The uniqueness of the iris, even among siblings and twins, brings the lowest false acceptance rate compared to any other modality, while replication is extremely difficult

VERSATILE - Works in an indoor and outdoor environment, with or without ambient illumination and also with glasses and facemasks

TOUCHLESS - Excellent hygiene properties as no physical contact is needed for enrollment and authentication

CONVENIENCE - An enrolled individual will authenticate in less than a second. The low false rejection rate will also ensure an authorized individual will not be falsely rejected

EASE OF USE - You don’t need your hands nor your full face. It only requires a quick glance with one eye at a distance of 0.5m to authenticate

Examples of use cases

Building entrance for access control applications

Iris recognition can be used for entrance control across a range of commercial and residential buildings such as offices, warehouses, houses, apartments, and hotels.

The uniqueness of the iris provides a high degree of security and the fast enrollment/authentication times ensure a seamless user experience – all with a simple glance. Not only does the touchless nature of the system enable hands-free capabilities, but it can also guarantee hygiene because the user does not have to touch a button or sensor that may have been contaminated. Additionally, iris recognition works equally well in indoor and outdoor environments, in bright sunlight and even with little or no light.

Restricted areas for access control applications

Areas with restricted access – such as data centers, clean rooms, research facilities, operating rooms and critical control centers – are all suited for iris recognition-based access control systems.

Not only is iris recognition superior to other biometric modalities - like face, voice, and fingerprint - spoofing is difficult, a vital requirement for any access control system for a restricted area. Armed with an iris recognition-based access system, users can also be securely authenticated even when they are wearing protective equipment such as facemasks, gloves or safety glasses.

Automotive applications

All vehicles – from cars, vans, trucks and buses to heavy equipment intended for personal and commercial use – can benefit from accurate driver identification via iris recognition.

Fast and reliable driver identification can be used to grant access to the vehicle, personalize vehicle settings like seat position and authorize in-vehicle payments like toll charges. Plus, there is no key required to lock/unlock the car. A driver can easily be identified by iris recognition, even when the driver is wearing sunglasses or in low ambient lighting scenarios. And with road safety a constant concern, iris recognition technology allows a driver to perform in-vehicle authentication without taking their hands of the steering wheel, nor their eyes of the road.

Open your eye to iris recognition – works with one eye, covered face, glasses on…
