Introduction
IriShield
TM
-USB BO 2121 is a revolutionary, binocular design that delivers the highest quality
autocapturing iris acquisition with an ease of use never achieved by older camera systems. The
system offers contactless, fast, standards-compliant iris acquisition in a small form factor that
is easy to house in a variety of packages. IriShield
TM
-USB includes an embedded CPU that
enables on-board computing for automated quality-based iris image capturing, recognition,
and verification without taxing the computing power of the host PC. IriShield
TM
-USB provides a
PKI-based security infrastructure which creates a selfgenerated RSA-2048bit key and
generates a random one-time AES-256bit key for each session. As a result, this camera can
operate with nearly any host PC or mobile computing device. With its USB interface, compact
design, and sophisticated, easy-to-integrate accompanying software, IriShield
TM
-USB
represents an unprecedented value for iris biometrics identification.
