Overview
The EasyRead is a member of Datastrip’s DSV3 family of
mobile hand-held biometric terminal products designed for a
wide-range of identification and ID management applications.
The EasyRead is optimized for one-step reading of ePassports;
however, it is able to read a wide variety of other optical or
smart card based credentials containing biometric data. It is
capable of comparing this information with the biometric data
collected by its on-board biometrics sensors (fingerprint and
cameras). It allows an operator to capture biometrics and to
perform quick, remote ID verification or identification while
in the field. The terminal can operate totally standalone, or it
can coordinate with centralized systems via a rich set of
communications interfaces. It is available with remote
communications capabilities that include: 802.11/WiFi,
Bluetooth, and GSM mobile cellular.
Operators can acquire a fingerprint image and remotely
perform 1-to-many identifications against a watch list, or
perform 1-to-1 comparisons for identity verification. Superior matching accuracy is achieved through
AFIS-quality (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) biometric matching algorithms and rugged
biometric sensors.
All of the DSV3 family of mobile terminals are rugged and environmentally sealed units that can be used
in harsh and hostile environments. They are shock resistant (Mil STD 810 compliant) and can withstand
a fall of four feet to a concrete surface. The DSV3 mobile terminals exceed IP 54 specifications for
resistance to dust and water.
The DSV3 is an open platform that comes with a powerful software programming SDK (Software
Developer Kit) that enables customers and system integrators to readily customize the unit for specific
applications and missions. Industry standard interfaces and technologies are used extensively to facilitate
the integration with other systems and to expedite the delivery best of breed solutions to the market. This
approach allows customers to select the technologies and components that are the most appropriate for
their applications and environments.
The flexibility and ruggedness of the EasyRead make it an ideal solution for ID verification and ID
management projects in markets and applications such as:
•
Homeland Security
•
Immigration Control
•
Law Enforcement
•
Airports
•
Military Bases and Ships
•
Transportation
•
Travel & Border Control
•
