German biometric firm Jenetric plans to present major new features of its LIVETOUCH quattro scanner at the connect:ID show next week in Washington DC.In a statement, the firm noted that the interaction between the scanner and user has been further optimized.The new features mean that the user is guided through the fingerprint recording process, with typical errors within the fingerprint capture process are identified and animations displayed directly on the scanner's screen help the user to achieve high quality fingerprint images.For international applications, the new user interface deliberately avoids displaying any text messages.The interface design was investigated by experts in human-­‐machine interaction of the Technical University of Chemnitz. Volunteers of different nationalities, cultural backgrounds and different ages have tested the device.”Through this extensive user study, we can now be sure that border controls, visa application procedures or the registration of individuals are much more effective with our new user interface,” says Roberto Wolfer, one of the founders and CEOs of Jenetric.At connect: ID, one of the major international conferences on technologies and systems of personal identification, Jenetric is also presents another innovation:By capturing the electronic signature directly on the touchscreen of LIVETOUCH quattro a separate signature pad will not be necessary anymore.The user can accept or repeat the electronic signature, though the touchpad.”With its combined scanning functionality, the LIVETOUCH quattro is perfectly suited for the application of travel passports or visa”, noted the firm.If you are interested in attending the connect:ID 2016 conference or exhibition, click here to purchase a conference pass or here to visit the free-to-attend exhibition.
