In light of the COVID-19 global health crisis, implementing contactless authentication terminals is now crucial in many public and private spaces; allowing a faster, more secure, and barrier-free biometric authentication.

IDEMIA, a global leader in Augmented Identity, has innovated to offer ever more complete and adapted solutions to its consumers.

With MorphoWave™, users can simply wave their hands in a quick and easy gesture to have their four fingerprints 3D-scanned and verified in less than one second.

(IDEMIA’s new generation of MorphoWave™ contactless fingerprint terminals are available in two profiles: MorphoWave XP to accommodate demanding deployments and comes in a large array of colors for ideal brand customization, and the MorphoWave SP dedicated to smaller installations.

Embedded with IDEMIA’s latest advances in the use of Artificial Intelligence, these two ergonomic biometric readers work efficiently with wet, dry, dirty hands, or even damaged fingerprints.

Additionally, the card reader of MorphoWave™ natively supports HID Prox, iClass, MIFARE, DESFire, and mobile access control solutions, and is also capable of scanning printed QR codes for visitor management.

In 2022, two new versions will be available for worldwide deployment:

MorphoWave™ XP X-tended Performance

  • MorphoWave™ XP X-tended Performance provides a 20% increase in performance compared with the previous generation, itself recognized as one of the best in the world in the latest NIST rankings.

  • It accommodates demanding deployments with up to 60 users per minute and up to 100,000 user records.

  • Its large color display is ideal for brand customization and user interaction as well as time and attendance management use cases.
