NEC Corporation of America (NEC) is rebranding it biometrics division, widely known for its award-winning suite of facial, fingerprint, palm print and multi-modal biometrics identification solutions, to reflect its expanding market offerings.
The rebranded division, NEC Advanced Recognition Systems, was formerly known as NEC Biometrics Solutions.
The global market for biometric technology, now estimated to exceed $20 billion (USD) over the coming decade, points to continued proliferation of biometrics technology beyond government and public sectors to airports, critical infrastructure, entertainment, malls, stadiums, hospitality, financial services and retail markets.
