Real Time Networks Integrates Iris ID Solution into Key and Asset Locker Management Systems for Law Enforcement
Cranbury, N.J.– Jan. 22, 2020 – Iris ID, a leading provider of iris recognition technology, today announced its iCAM R100 solution now integrates with KeyTracer key management cabinets and AssetTracer Smart Lockers from Real Time Networks. Law enforcement agencies and correctional facilities use the cabinets and lockers to protect keys, weapons, evidence and other items.
Users of both systems are authenticated through an intuitive interface that works with personal identification numbers (PINs), access control cards, RFID fobs and biometric identifiers. The iCAM R100 integration provides a secure multi-factor authentication option for both convenience and high security. The iCAM R100 uses the iris, the colored part of the eye surrounding the pupil and unique to each person, to quickly and accurately identify people from 15 inches away.
Mohammed Murad, vice president global sales and business development, Iris ID, said iris-based recognition solutions avoid many of the problems associated with other biometric systems.
“The iCAM R100 is non-contact, so it’s not affected by dirt, grease, gloves, facial hair, hats, glasses and other factors that reduce the accuracy of fingerprint and facial recognition systems,” he said. “We’re very excited to bring our iris-based solution to Real Time Networks.”
Michael French, chief executive officer, Real Time Networks, said both the modular key cabinets and asset lockers can be easily customized to meet specific user needs. A biometric identifier adds to the systems’ flexibility and security while providing users with complete control of their most valued assets.
“Also, the Iris ID system’s ease of use fits well with our custom-solution cabinets and lockers,” French said.
Iris ID identification systems also are being used around the world for access control, time and attendance, national ID programs, border crossings, voter registration and other applications.
