The integration into Genkey’s ID platform now offers full deduplication on both modalities"
The Iris ID technology provides a fast, accurate and non-contact method of capturing citizens’ biometrics, identifying people and detecting duplicates. Iris ID authentication systems are used worldwide for access control, time and attendance checks, national ID programs, border crossings, voter registration, and many other applications. The company’s solutions are currently being used by public and private organisations across Africa and on five other continents.
Mohammed Murad, vice president of global sales and business development, Iris ID said the company’s technology is a natural fit with GenKey.
Integration with GenKey biometrics ID platform
“Our cameras are unaffected by dirt, grease, gloves, facial hair and other factors that can limit the quality of registration and identity verification of other biometric systems.” he said. “In addition to its speed and accuracy, our software has been proven to be highly effective for deduplication – the elimination of multiple registrations by the same person. The integration into Genkey’s ID platform now offers full deduplication on both modalities.”
GenKey’s ID platform is designed for capturing biographic and biometric data of individuals in small to large-scale registrations and ensuring that each subject stored is unique. Besides its standard registration, verification and reporting modules, the software has customised modules for biometric voter verification, election management and biometric member verification for healthcare, and other use cases.
