Iris ID, a leading provider of iris recognition technology, and Platinum Award Winner in the 2016, 2018, and 2019 Annual ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Programs, has integrated its handheld iCAM M300 multimode platform for biometric enrollment and verification with the FBI-certified Sherlock fingerprint scanner Integrated Biometrics (IB).
Integrated Biometrics designs and manufactures a range of FBI-certified fingerprint sensors for law enforcement, military operations, homeland security, national identity, election validation, social services and a wide range of commercial applications.
The new integrated fingerprint reader snaps onto the iCAM M300 to create one lightweight (just 60 grams), portable unit for field use.
Sherlock is certified by the FBI as a FAP 45 fingerprint scanner having met the bureau’s stringent image quality conditions in virtually any environment, including indirect or direct sunlight, dusty conditions and with dry or dirty fingers.
The unit can simultaneously scan up to two fingerprints and run for hours connected to the iCAM M300.
Iris ID’s Android-based iCAM M300 is designed for field use in law enforcement, access control, national ID programs, border control and time and attendance situations.
The unit’s embedded cameras capture both iris and facial modes.
Also included are magstripe and contactless card support, as well as an MRZ reader to verify ePassports.
Communications protocols include NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, 4G LTE and more.
“IB is extremely pleased for the Sherlock to be chosen for integration into such a cutting-edge mobile multi-modal identification device,” explained David Gerulski, executive vice president of Integrated Biometrics.
“Our lightweight, low-power devices, based on IB’s patented Light Emitting Sensor film, are enabling a completely new approach to identification for police, border authorities and more.”
