Fingerprint authentication added to X-Station 2’s lineup of QR code/RFID options

SEOUL, KOREA, OCT 13, 2021 — Suprema, a global leader in biometric security and access control, announced the launch of an upgraded version of its X-Station 2 access control terminal, which now supports fingerprint authentication.

In May 2021, Suprema launched four models of X-Station 2, a next-generation “versatile intelligent terminal” that supports a variety of authentication methods from mobile access cards to RFID cards, QR codes and barcodes. The newest X-Station 2 model comes equipped with a fingerprint recognition module that provides more options for customers.

The main features of X-Station 2 include:

• Support for various authentication methods such as mobile access, QR codes, fingerprints, and RFID cards
• Fraud prevention via authentication photos using a built-in camera
• A convenient 4-inch touch screen
• Up to 500,000 users can be stored and processed

Suprema CEO Hanchul Kim said, “With COVID-19 increasing the demand for smartphone-based, non-face-to-face solutions, we received good reviews following the original launch of our X-Station 2 mobile access authentication terminal. The newly launched X-Station 2 fingerprint model diversifies contactless authentication options to customers who use existing biometric information. They can now enjoy the same level of security performance while offering users the convenience and peace of mind that mobile access brings.”
