Lumidigm partners Anviz for new multispectral biometric terminal

Albuquerque, NM

Last week at the Ifsec show in Birmingham, UK Lumidigm partnered Anviz Biometric to show how fingerprint biometrics can now be used in all types of applications where fingerprint identification is required, especially in governments and large-scale enterprises as well as places where a high security level is a must.
The Anviz OA1000 Series fingerprint terminals leverage Lumidigm’s multispectral imaging sensors to assure even fingerprints that are hard to read due to age, dirt, water, dryness and other problems can finally be read with confidence.

“We are excited about our partnership with Lumidigm and believe their multispectral fingerprint sensors are an enabling technology that will allow us to further help our customers to confidently deploy biometrics,” says Michael Qiu, CEO of Anviz Biometric.

“At the Anviz stand, Ifsec attendees were able to see how multispectral fingerprint sensors use a subsurface fingerprint to increase biometric performance and make applications more secure and reliable” comments Seth Miller, Lumidigm Director of Business Development. “Additionally, systems utilising Lumidigm, like the Anviz OA1000, deliver greater user convenience, leading to the broader acceptance of biometric systems.”

That is because Lumidigm multispectral fingerprint sensors capture fingerprint data beneath the surface of the skin so that dryness or even damaged or worn fingers create no problems for reliable reads. Using multiple wavelengths of light and advanced polarisation techniques to extract unique fingerprint characteristics from both the surface and subsurface of the skin, Lumidigm’s sensors provide results that are more consistent, more inclusive and more tamper resistant than conventional biometric readers in all types of environments. As a result, Anviz biometric readers using Lumidigm sensors can scan through dirt, dust, high ambient light, water and even some latex gloves.

The OA1000 Series is a genuine breakthrough by Anviz in biometric identification terminals, which fully integrate fingerprint identification, RFID, security camera, wireless, multimedia and embedded system technologies. They utilise a 3.5 inch industrial TFT true colour LCD, Samsung 400MHz Arm9 high speed processor and Windows CE operation system as well as Lumidigm’s multispectral imaging sensors.
