Biomatiques Launches India’s First Indigenous Iris Recognition Technology at Fingerprint Technology Price

  First Indian company to receive prestigious STQC for Iris Scanners     from DeitY

Mumbai, 18^th March, 2015; Biomatiques Identification Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (Biomatiques) launched India’s first indigenous Iris recognition technology through their revolutionary range of Iris scanning products in Mumbai today.  The guest of honor for the launch was Mr. Rajan Luthra, National President, Fire and Security Association of India (FSAI). A pioneer in the Iris recognition field, Biomatiques is the first Indian company to receive the prestigious Standardization Testing and Quality Certification (STQC) for their Iris scanners from the STQC Directorate, Department of Electronics and Information Technology (Deity), New Delhi.  The robust Iris technology is the most trusted form of identity authentication and as affordable as fingerprint technology.

Mr. Tamaal Roy, CEO, Biomatiques, introduced the path-breaking Iris technology and said, “Our indigenization 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 in India and the globe completely. The awarded STQC Department of IT allows connection of our Iris scanners to the Aadhaar database also.”

Iris recognition method 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 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 meters and authenticate the Iris.  The Iris technology is user-friendly, contactless, glitch- free, long-lasting and almost impossible to deceive. Due to its robustness,

ease, cost effectiveness, the technology can used in all areas of identity assurance environments, from border control to access control,from transportation to law.

Mr. Roy averred, “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.”

The new range of identification solutions products from Biomatiques comes with assured reliability and this revolutionary technology is set to replace all other forms of security systems as the most secure form of identity assurance.
