Introducing T5-AirSnap – TECH5’s fully touchless biometric acquisition technology  powered by AI and deep learning for face and fingerprint biometric modalities.

Our innovative technology allows and capture and processing of face and fingerprint biometrics within seconds. The resulting data is compliant with relevant ISO standards and suitable for use with legacy datasets. The technology is using the camera of a standard mobile phone rather than purpose-built devices traditionally used for biometric capture.

In recent years, the contactless biometric market has grown rapidly. An increasing number of companies around the world are implementing contactless capture technologies as the main tool for biometric data acquisition during digital onboarding and remote verification.

The technology checks and enhances the quality of captured image(s), runs a liveness check and then packages and sends the data for verification or registration, all within seconds. This process ensures that the data has been taken from a real person and that the image(s) are of acceptable quality, and comply with applicable standards and customer requirements. The T5-AirSnap technology is optimal for onboarding as well as for verification and law enforcement applications across all vertical markets.

The captured data can be sent to a central identity management system (T5-OmniMatch ABIS or 3rd party) for registration or matching. Alternatively, the data can be used for identity verification locally on the same mobile device using TECH5’s mobile face SDK or a third-party solution.

T5-AirSnap Finger

T5-AirSnap Finger is a patented fully touchless fingerprint capture technology for mobile devices, designed to increase scalability of fingerprint-based solutions and reduce dependency on costly purpose-built hardware that traditionally drives costs in large-scale projects. T5-AirSnap Finger efficiently captures and prepares biometric data for further processing in compliance with interoperability standards.

T5-AirSnap Finger Liveness Technology

It is critical to be able to detect and confirm the liveness of fingerprints during self-onboarding and remote verification, which today form the basis of interactions with banks, government and other sectors to avoid unnecessary visits to a branch or an office.

T5-AirSnap Finger contactless fingerprint capture technology for mobile devices is equipped with an innovative NN (neural network) based fingerprint liveness detection technology developed by TECH5. T5-AirSnap Finger has been ranked the best in the market according to the Liveness Detection (LivDet) 2023 Non-contact Fingerprint international competition.

TECH5 fingerprint liveness technology is in conformance with iBeta ISO 30107-3 PAD Level 1, ensuring the best quality of liveness detection in every scenario.

Flattening 3D Images

T5-AirSnap Finger flattens 3D surfaces, normalizes ridge density and enhances edge fingerprints.

T5-AirSnap Face

T5-AirSnap Face is a fully contactless biometric capture technology powered by Al and deep learning for face biometric modality. The technology allows for fast and accurate biometric acquisition by capturing an image with either the built-in front or back camera of a smartphone or a web interface, running a liveness check and then packaging and sending the data for verification or registration.

The inbuilt quality check algorithm ensures that the image(s) are of acceptable quality and suitable for further processing. Furthermore, the technology allows users to capture only high-quality ISO and ICAO compliant images, which meet the criteria required by liveness and matching technologies and are well suited for digital onboarding and verification.

Packaging and sending the data

Using our in-house mobile platform with optimized AI-based algorithm, T5-AirSnap Face Mobile performs face capture with quality assessment in less than 100 msec on modern phones. Effective built-in liveness detection combats fraud by detecting when a person presents an image or a video instead of a real face during capture.

T5-AirSnap Face Mobile operates efficiently even in varying lighting conditions on a wide range of mobile phones running on Android and iOS operating systems. The technology is offered as a native core SDK or as a UI component along with popular wrappers, which allows our partners and customers to easily integrate and deploy it. With most of the parameters being configurable, companies can build an efficient and frictionless user experience into their applications.

T5-AirSnap Face Web allows for contactless facial biometric capture using web interfaces. The technology is supported by all major browsers and performs face detection, head pose estimation, detection of possible artifacts (masks, sunglass) as well as other parameters.

T5-AirSnap Face Web provides instantaneous feedback, allowing a user to align the face according to image requirements. The resulting images meet all requirements of liveness and matching algorithms.

T5-AirSnap Face Web is compliant with ISO 19794-5 and 39794-5 standards and supports all features that are available for T5-AirSnap Face Mobile.
