IRIS RECOGNITION MYTHS and Misconceptions – Watch Iris ID’s interview pre-empting #IdentityWeekAmerica.

 

Iris ID Systems Director, Tim Meyerhoff has long been a name known in the identity ecosystem and at Identity Week, who spoke to our Editor prior to the event returning to D.C.

Iris recognition is a modality of biometric authentication still under-represented with some resistance recognisable in the US domestic marketplace due to the “fear of the unknown”.

Iris ID Systems bridges this gap in multimodal biometric technology and the technology itself debunks the myths and misconceptions of the public, which are restated here.

The iris provides the highest level of accuracy of all modalities to verify the real person.

Iris recognition has seen significant growth for Liveness Detection and Anti-Spoofing. Presentation attacks are foiled with Iris ID, which is accredited by both end- users and government entities. The US DOD IARPA test passed 98% accuracy in the device and 99.9 % post capture, to help clients.
