IrisGuard's patented technologies validate iris stability in youngsters
The IrisGuard AD100 imager system, considered the golden standard of iris camera systems, was used by Clarkson University to confirm that irises do not age. Using the AD100, Clarkson University tracked children aged 4 years and older; the study did not observe any significant effects of aging, which would have resulted in an increase in non-matches over a three-year sampling period.
The built-in automatic pupil-dilation control method, patented and unique part of all IrisGuard's imagers, ensures uniformity between enrollment and subsequent samples, key to this study which analysed dilation and matching performance.
This pupil-control mechanism is extremely important when registering the irises of millions of people for the targeted distribution of assistance payments, EMR management or for border control. Whilst patented in 2011, this IrisGuard-only technological breakthrough has been implemented in all their camera systems since 2007, some 14 years ago. It is one of many patents and use of their know how that only IrisGuard was able to identify and address.
commented: "I am delighted that our dedication and attention to detail to build the most accurate iris recognition cameras has proven its value in this ground-breaking study. We have always known that pupil dilation causes major compromise on scanned data and that for our real-time verification of millions of people with unmatched FAR and over 100 trillion cross matches so far, this level of accuracy was mandatory."
