Speed Identity has received an order to supply biometric capture equipment for e-passports to the Luxemburg passport authority.
The equipment has been used by Swedish police authorities for several years, both for the purpose of capturing biometric data such as two-dimensional face pictures, finger prints and digital signatures, and also for passport manufacturing and migration documents.
– "We see the order from the Luxemburg passport authority as a breakthrough for us in the European market. The fact that we have won a tender of this magnitude is a powerful recognition of our advanced product solutions for biometric capture equipment for e-passports. Of course we are very proud," says Magnus Svenningson, CEO of Speed Identity.
– "The uniqueness in our equipment lies in its user-friendliness and rapid maneuvering, both for the operator and for the applicant. The operator greatly benefits from the fact that the unit for biometric control always delivers ICAO-approved data and that the applicant is handled in a fast manner, no more than one visit to the authority is required," Mr Svenningson adds.
