Union Community Co. Ltd. has newly developed its iris recognition terminals (UBio-X Iris) that can recognise iris at a distance of 50cm. Sales are expected to increase this year with the launch of contactless new products such as face recognition devices. Amid the on-going COVID-19 crisis, the demand for the non-contact biometric method is growing popular.
Union Community’s iris recognition system “UBio-X Iris” is equipped with an auto tilting function, which automatically finds iris at a distance of up to 50 cm and quickly authenticates it. It is expected that it will be spotlighted in medical facilities, airports, and commercial facilities where there is a high risk of infection due to the large floating population by eliminating the rejection of the iris scanner.
In particular, security and convenience have been further strengthened with the “multimodal type” product, which enables not only iris authentication but also the multi-modal authentication of iris and fingerprints, to differentiate it from existing companies’ products. It is also equipped with a high-performance iris recognition algorithm that enables 20,000 iris authentications within a second.
The introduction of an iris recognition system is accelerating, focusing on public institutions and others, given that recognition can be accurate and fast even if using hijab.
In addition, in case of iris distinction, even twins can be differentiated, and even after plastic surgery, there is no problem with authentication.
