Working at a nominal distance of 2 meters, the InSight system fully automates biometric image acquisition and provides consistent verification of a subject’s identity in just 2 seconds. The system employs innovative adaptive optics technology that automatically finds the subject’s face and eyes within a very large capture volume, making subject participation effortless. This increased recognition space allows for varying personnel needs such as multiple heights ranging from ADA wheelchairs to an excess of seven feet.
