Profile: NextgenID, Inc. is a manufacturer of threat-scalable, outdoor deployable, single and multi-modal biometric face recognition, fingerprint recognition, and iris recognition access control systems. Our BioAxs 9700 is a fingerprint recognition access control system. The system employs a powerful search algorithm to index fingerprints by their global characteristics, and so can be used without the need for magnetic swipe, proximity card (and the burdensome, recurring costs associated with cards), or pin number entry. The BioAxs IR is a choice for applications that need authentication requirements to increase or decrease, based on the current terrorist threat level.
