Important Trends: Multimodality and Mobility

• Multimodality provides versatility in ID verification; best biometric for the need – Embraced by US Gov’t and beyond: US DoD, DoS, DHS, FBI; India; Indonesia; Mexico; Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

• Mobile biometrics emerging key market due to in-field enrollment and identification needs

Iris Fingerprint Face Voice

Superior matching accuracy; Fast search; Consistency in the field

Well established technology with significant infrastructure; Forensic link

Core biometric on travel and ID documents; Human verification

Emerging use cases; leverages broad existing audio infrastructure

Smart ID by nature relies on multimodality for use case versatility

• Deportee blacklist: UAE – SECURITY – >350,000 iris database – At least 80,000 instances caught trying to re-enter

• Enrollment – de-duplication: Indonesia – ACCURACY – >140M National ID database – Fingerprint/Face used in rare cases as back-up

• Facilitation – Token-less ID: Canada – EFFICIENCY – NEXUS program for US-Canadian border – Self-service kiosks: no additional paperwork/certification needed
