AOptix Launches Dash Six Iris Recognition Enterprise SDK

Aug 15, 2011

AOptix Technologies, Inc., a developer of advanced biometrics-based identity solutions, recently announced the launch of their Dash Six Iris Recognition Enterprise SDK. As a complement to their InSight iris recognition systems, AOptix is rolling out Dash Six to bring exceptional matching accuracy to customers looking for openness, ease of integration and strong integration support.

Dash Six offers powerful, flexible, iris image processing capabilities that include iris segmentation, encoding and matching. Following years of rigorous engineering, structured statistical analysis and optimization in real world environments, Dash Six achieves superior accuracy, interoperability and speed.

With Dash Six, users can tailor functional attributes to meet deployment needs. The SDK offers strong support for “one-to-one” authentication (including a compact template-on-card format) as well as large-scale "one-to-many" identification, supported by powerful image quality and anti-spoofing metrics. And, because AOptix prioritizes interoperability, Dash Six can be implemented with a wide range of iris recognition systems.

“The Dash Six algorithm is already in use in demanding airport passenger terminals, secure facilities, and other environments where accuracy and consistency are critical,” says Joseph Pritikin, director of product marketing at AOptix. “When coupled with images captured from our InSight system, it unleashes the full capability of iris recognition, providing industry-leading biometric performance.”

Built for Windows and Linux operating systems, Dash Six is based on ISO 19794-6 standards for image format and quality. AOptix is now accepting orders for the Dash Six Software Development Kit and associated deployment licenses, and welcomes inquiries from domestic and international systems integrators, VARs, and end users.

HD2055 Modular Barricade

Delta Scientific’s electric HD2055 modular shallow foundation barricade is tested to ASTM M50/P1 with negative penetration from the vehicle upon impact. With a shallow foundation of only 24 inches, the HD2055 can be installed without worrying about buried power lines and other below grade obstructions. The modular make-up of the barrier also allows you to cover wider roadways by adding additional modules to the system. The HD2055 boasts an Emergency Fast Operation of 1.5 seconds giving the guard ample time to deploy under a high threat situation.
A8V MIND

Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area.
