Identity Authentication and Verification for Businesses and Governments, in a World Demanding Increased Personal Validation.
Employers, government agencies and retailers are faced with the conflict of introducing increasingly complex security systems to verify individuals' identity and the desire for them to not affect the lives of employees, customers and members of the public. Increasingly, passports, ID cards and other forms of proof of identity are being read to satisfy legislation, protect from fraud and maintain the security and safety of the public.
With a long history of reading passports, ID cards and all types of travel document, we draw upon proven technologies and years of design experience, and offer a broad range of validation and verification solutions. As criminals devise increasingly inventive ways to assume the identity of another individual, documents and systems evolve to become increasingly robust and the effective
We manufacture robust and reliable devices that are intuitive to use and read documents quickly. As much as possible, we aim for our devices to naturally compliment existing systems and the behaviour of end-users.
Identity Authentication and Verification Applications
Border control and immigration
Efficiently processing the traveling public at ports and airports has become complex, particularly as security documents become more sophisticated. We offer fixed and mobile solutions to read identity and travel documents, from fixed desk locations and for roaming agents dedicated to queue-busting, for example at check-in kiosks and security locations at the airport.

Know your customer
An increased burden of legislation and penalties for wrongdoing has made 'knowing your customer' critical for many businesses: Retailers have an obligation for age verification for certain products and, increasingly, want to establish identity to prevent retail fraud; banks, solicitors and attorneys have anti-money laundering obligations; and hotels, casinos and private clubs increasingly want to verify the identities of their clients.
'Know your customer' document readers
Knowing your employee
Employers who recruit employees who do not have a right to work are committing a criminal offence under legislation in many countries and this includes an obligation to verify an individual's identity. We manufacture cost-effective identity document verification solutions, with the facility to verify the latest security measures in chipped devices such as epassports and eID cards, suitable for businesses and recruitment agents.

Security, police and law enforcement
Cost effective mobile computing has allowed security and law enforcement agencies to be equipped with technology to verify the identity of individuals. The deployment of our mobile readers is especially suitable to over one hundred countries who have rules stipulating that the public must carry some form of ID, most commonly resident or national identity cards, passports or driver's licences.

Kiosk and autogate readers
Kiosks and autogates are rapidly being deployed to reduce operating costs in air travel, underground and rail transport, entertainment and sports events. Self-service check-in kiosks are well established at airports and IATA's new 'Fast Travel Programme' will lead to auto-gate boarding of flights world-wide. Access have products for simple integration into kiosks and autogates to read all traditional and new identity documents.
