Aratek recently announced the launch of the Marshall 8 biometric tablet, the latest in the revolutionary Marshall line of biometric terminals designed for various authentication and identification applications.
The Marshall 8 is a rugged biometric tablet with a larger 8-inch 1280 x 800 display designed for even greater usability. “Bigger is better,” said Samuel Wu, Aratek’s VP for International Business Development.
“We engineered the Marshall 8 to give an even more enhanced user experience. The extra screen real estate is calculated to lead to greater usability and increased performance and productivity,” Wu added.
The unit is encased in a sturdy IP65 rated body to protect from dust and splashes. It also comes with a larger memory capacity that includes 3+ 32 memory / 256G SD card, making the most demanding identification and authentication jobs a cinch.
“The Marshall 8 is equipped with both a FAP 30 fingerprint sensor and facial recognition capabilities. This two-factor biometric authentication continues to be the gold standard in accurate and secure biometric solutions,” notes Wu.
With a 10000mAh battery and a quick-charge functionality, the Marshall 8 is capable of extended runtimes of up to 14 hours on a full charge, making it the perfect device for field mobility solutions.
Marshall 8 supports a wide range of credential readers — contact smart card reader, contactless NFC reader and a barcode reader. It also supports 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS for real-time communication and can be used as a handheld or a desktop device as needs dictate.
“Security and reliability are always top-of-mind in Aratek that’s why we made the Marshall 8 as tamper resistant as possible. It uses Live Finger Detection (LFD) to detect the liveness of the specimen presented, which is a foolproof way to prevent spoofing,” Wu said.
The extremely mobile and portable Aratek Marshall 8 enables secure enrollments in both indoor and outdoor environments and is suited for National ID, voter registration, SIM card activation, border control, law enforcement, financial services, mobile time and attendance and census campaigns.
