Virginia-based biometric solutions provider Corvus has revealed a new pro handheld multi-modal biometric solution for the capture and verification of users' identities on the go.Called “Unity”, the device also emplys “Raven”, Corvus' identity management software that provides identification and matching capability.The firm says that potential applications include population enrollment, border control, passport processing, law enforcement, first responder, and event management.”Unity is lightweight and rugged, and is ideal for mobile and dynamic environments where identities must be quickly captured and verified,” said the company.Corvus has teamed with partner CardLogix, a provider of smart cards and software for secure IDs, to feature its PassCheck For Unity Credential Validation Software.PassCheck for Unity powers Unity and its optional Unity Passport Scanner/ Reader to capture and verify passports and other Machine Readable Travel Documents (MRTDs), such as ICAO ID-1 cards.PassCheckreads a credential's chip data, decodes it, and validates its digital signature against published country certificates. The mobile passport and biometric verification solution is created when PassCheck is combined with Unity and the optional Unity Passport Scanner/Reader.
