Biometric positive identity proximity device launched from Genie
Welwyn Garden City, Herts
Biocard 8 from Genie Access is said to be the first unique "all-in-one" individual patented dual chip biometric proximity device for positive identification. The biometric chip is activated once a fingerprint is registered via its touch and swipe facility.
This unique proximity card offers up to 100 fingerprint templates and a passive and active biometric identity, all on one card. Biocard 8 also boasts a long fingerprint sensor life (more than one million reads!) and compliments the most sophisticated security system by offering Mifare, HID, EM, iclass and Desfire variants. All personal data on the card for the registered user is stored locally and there is no requirement for any special software.
A built-in lanyard grip is also available on the proximity card which is also designed to fit the standard CR80 printed identity card.
Biocard 8 is suitable for a wide number of applications eg. law enforcement, government, correctional facilities, secure banking, data centres, educational institutions and student accommodation, amongst others.
