Suprema's AI-powered facial authentication access control solution, BioStation 3, has successfully passed the 'Presentation Attack Detection (PAD)' test conducted by the reputable U.S.-based software quality assurance & testing company, iBeta. As a result, BioStation 3 is now compliant with the 'ISO/IEC 30107-3' PAD standard.
iBeta is biometric testing laboratory accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) under the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The laboratory verifies the performance and quality of biometric systems accordingS to stringent international standards. BioStation 3 was evaluated by iBeta's PAD conformance testing in accordance with the ISO/IEC 30107-3 standard, including passive liveness detection testing with comprehensive spoofing techniques used in the presentation attack.
With over 20 years of experience in the biometrics industry, Suprema has built a robust foundation in over 140 countries worldwide. This extensive global presence has enabled Suprema to accumulate experience with various racial and ethnic profiles, as well as different facial changes, which is essential for the development of AI algorithms. Leveraging this data, Suprema has achieved exceptional facial authentication performance. In 2022, Suprema further enhanced its AI capabilities by adopting highly advanced AI processor, NPU(Neural Processing Unit), into BioStation 3. This upgrade has significantly improved the accuracy and speed of facial authentication while strengthening anti-spoofing measures to detect fake faces, images, and photos. The facial authentication performance is impressively consistent across various ethnicities and for faces with masks, glasses, hats, beards, niqabs, and different hairstyles. It even ensures accuracy under any lighting condition, whether bright, dim, or backlit. Also, it is not only highly accurate but also fast, so it takes within 0.2 seconds to authenticate moving faces which offers great convenience in high-traffic areas.
Building on the innovation and product quality of BioStation 3, it has been recognized in worldwide, receiving prestigious awards from leading security media. BioStation 3 was honored as the 'Best Product' in the access control category at the ‘Detektor International Award 2022’, secured a silver trophy for the most innovative product at ‘ExpoProtection 2022’ held in Paris, France, and was named the ‘Top Access Control Hardware Product’ in the ‘SecurityInfoWatch.com Readers’ Choice Product Awards 2023’. This global recognition including a validation from iBeta, is a further testament to Suprema's facial authentication AI technology, showcasing its world leading performance and reliability. With unparalleled expertise and cutting-edge technology, Suprema continues to lead the field, setting new standards in AI-powered facial authentication solutions.
