Surat-headquartered Biomatiques Identification SolutionsPvt. Ltd. (Biomatiques) on Thursday launched India’s first indigenous Iris recognition technology through their range of Iris scanning products, a statement issued by the company said here.
Biomatiques is the first Indian company to receive theStandardisation Testing and Quality Certification (STQC) for their Iris scanners from the STQC Directorate, Department of Electronics and Information Technology (Deity) under the Union Ministry of of Communications and Information Technology, the statement added.
The Iris technology, the company statement claimed, is the most trusted form of identity authentication and as affordable as fingerprint technology.
Commenting on the launch of India's first Iris recognition technology, Tamaal Roy, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Biomatiques, said, “Our indigenisation has helped us bring down the cost of Iris authentication to match fingerprint authentication. With our vision of ‘Total Security’, we aim to completely replace fingerprint authentication, which is error-prone. The applications for this technology are varied, and we are expecting this price revolution to change the security mindset across India and the globe. The awarded STQC Department of IT allows connection of our Iris scanners to the Aadhaar database also.”
Iris recognition method, the statement highlighted, is an automated form of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of one or both of the irises of an individual's eyes, whose complex random patterns are unique, stable, and can be seen from some distance.
An iris-recognition algorithm, the company said, can identify up to 250 identification points including rings, furrows and freckles within the iris. Some of these Iris scanners can capture the Iris image from a distance of two metres and authenticate the Iris.
The company claims that due to its robustness, ease and cost-effectiveness, the technology can used in all areas of identity assurance environments, from border control to access control, from transportation to law, among others.
Roy added, “The cost and security advantage has been the core of our development for over two years. Matching Iris technology costs to the currently available fingerprint recognition technology will cause a revolution in the field of biometric authentication and allow everyone to be more secure without extra cost.”
