iface is an advanced biometric facial recognition solution from CDVI, which offers high performance, high accuracy and high-speed facial matching. In 1:N mode for 10,000 subjects, faces are identified, analysed, and compared to the database, in less than one second.

Backed by a powerful octa-core processor and 2 GB RAM, iface’s rapid facial matching provides a seamless user experience, while also improving the efficiency of entry points.

The sleek and stylish unit can be mounted on walls, desktops and turnstiles, and includes a built-in MIFARE DESFire card reader, as a secondary access validation method. The high-performance dual cameras are specially designed to detect and automatically capture faces of individuals, up to two metres away from the biometric facial recognition unit. 

iface is easily integrated with access control systems, thanks to its Wiegand in/out protocol, RS485 ethernet connection, and dry contact relay.

Touchless access control

In combination with an automatic door opener, iface creates a truly touchless entry experience, thereby eradicating any risks or anxieties around the hygiene of shared surfaces, in a post-COVID-19 world.

With database capacity for up to 20,000 face templates, iface is a biometric access solution that scales with the user and their changing needs.
