Apple confirmed longstanding speculation last week with its unveiling of its three new iPhone models for 2018. Like last year’s iPhone X, all of the new devices have abandoned Apple’s pioneering Touch ID fingerprint authentication system in favor of Face ID, an infrared, 3D facial recognition system. Face ID is now the sole means of…
FaceTec has really made a name for itself over the last several months, thanks to its ZoOm 3D Face Login solution. While a number of authentication specialists have sought to leverage facial recognition since Apple began to popularize face unlock for its iPhone X last September, FaceTec’s system stands out for its use of 3D…
Trusona has made one of its physical ID-focused authentication solutions even stronger. Designed to replace one-time password tokens, the system is aimed at sensitive authentication applications, such as opening new accounts or performing wire transfers. End users register for the system by scanning a driver’s license or passport, and for each subsequent authentication session, they…
Facial recognition biometrics is one of the more controversial biometric technologies thanks to popular fears of one’s face being used against them. BioID is facing these fears head-on with a new liveness detection feature. The cloud biometrics developer announced a new liveness detection feature to be integrated in the the BioID Web Services (BWS) with…
SensibleVision is offering further details on its 3D facial recognition software for mobile devices.
