Badging And Management System

Iris recognition capabilities

The badging and management system enables users to register and print temporary identification badges unassisted with detailed entry/egress logs for tracking and report generation. The system employs the supplier's BM-ET300 and Authenticam iris recognition systems. The system consists of a registration station and an authentication station. Users first register with security personnel to capture an iris code image and ID photo. Users then log onto the system using iris recognition. Upon verification, a temporary ID badge is generated from a laser printer networked into the system.

Feature: multiple lobby authentication stations can be networked for campus-wide applications.

Using the keypad, or an optional scanner, additional point-of-sale information such as aisle/cashier and items recovered can be logged. The resulting alarm incident report becomes part of the centralized database.
