TECH5, an innovator in the field of biometrics and digital identity management, has been selected as the biometric technology provider for RENIEC Peru. This project was awarded to TECH5 after winning a public tender. TECH5’s platforms will be used for facial biometric capture and verification during the digital identity validation process to access digital services offered by RENIEC and other entities. RENIEC, the National Registry of dentification and Civil Status, is an autonomous constitutional body of the Peruvian state. Its primary role is to maintain records of vital events such as births, marriages, divorces, and deaths, as well as oversee voter eligibility and registration. Businesses across the country – such as banks, fintech companies, insurance providers, and healthcare organizations – rely on RENIEC for citizen authentication prior to delivering services
For this initial three-year project, TECH5 will provide its T5-AirSnap Face technology for mobile capture, as well as its T5-OmniMatch ABIS platform for facial verification. T5-AirSnap Face is a biometric capture technology powered by AI and deep learning for facial biometrics. The technology enables fast and accurate biometric acquisition using the front or rear camera of a smartphone. It packages the data for verification or registration. Its built-in quality check algorithm ensures the captured image(s) meet high standards for further processing. Additionally, the technology captures high-quality ISO and ICAO-compliant images, which fulfill the requirements for liveness and matching technologies, making it ideal for digital onboarding and verification. During onboarding, these images are sent to the backend for verification using the T5-OmniMatch ABIS platform. T5-OmniMatch ABIS is a mission-critical, multi-biometric matching platform allowing to perform identification, de-duplication, verification, and authentication using face, fingerprint, and iris modalities.
“RENIEC is one of the most advanced citizen identity services, and we are delighted to provide our technology to them and empower such a fundamental organization with TECH5’s platforms, which benefit the Peruvian citizens by securely accessing RENIEC’s applications anywhere in the world using their mobile device or web browser.” – Commented Jeremy James, VP of Sales and Business Development for the CALA region at TECH5 Group.
