MorphoWave Compact is 86% smaller than MorphoWave Tower, while retaining the same large scanning volume. It acquires four fingers in 3D for maximum accuracy, with one pass of the hand over the sensor. The ergonomic touchless operation delivers an unmatched combination of security, convenience and throughput. MorphoWave Compact’s reduced size comes with a very competitive cost of ownership, an IP65 rating and a rich feature set to ensure that users can now experience frictionless access everywhere…with a simple wave of the hand.
As the global leader in fingerprint technology for more than four decades, IDEMIA has served the world’s largest users of biometrics. Over the past ten years, IDEMIA has combined tremendous R&D efforts with large-scale, high volume deployments of touchless fingerprint technology, to ensure that frictionless biometric access is a proven reality today.
“The overwhelming success of our MorphoWave Tower in major Fortune 500 companies across the globe – such as, so far, corporate headquarters, large manufacturing sites, prestigious universities, and some of the largest banks and financial institutions around the globe – not only proves the technology delivers on its promise, but also confirms the potential and hunger to use it everywhere,” said Philippe Barreau, Executive Vice-President of Citizen Identity and Public Security activities at IDEMIA. “We have designed MorphoWave Compact specifically with this in mind, to allow customers to leverage the technology beyond the lobby, at every door.”
Visitors to the ISC West exhibition in Las Vegas (April 11 – 13, 2018) have the opportunity to discover MorphoWave Compact at booth #4071
