We are dedicated to market and consumer relevant innovation, research, and development, to provide resource optimized state-of the-art biometric platforms. IDEX Biometrics is uniquely positioned as a provider of completely decentralized authentication solutions for card- based fingerprint biometric sensing technology.
The IDEX Biometrics technology was purpose-built for biometric payment and access smart cards in response to the highest security standards and other requirements of these markets, such as power harvesting, transaction speed, durability, and cost effectiveness. Our technology is based on the biological markers of a person’s unique fingerprint and confirms the user’s identity through a ‘handshake procedure’ with the payment terminal, access reader or mobile phone. The biometric card solution eliminates the need for less secure credentials such as passwords, pins or the many costly and cumbersome multifactor authentication methods used today.
IDEX Biometrics has evolved from a component company to an end-to-end solution company. With our own card operating system capabilities, the product offering supports additional market verticals, broadening the target markets and creating new market opportunities.
