Identity & Biometrics
The powerful combination of our top-ranked biometric technology and continually refined AI algorithms present quick and accurate solutions for identifying and verifying individuals.
The powerful combination of our top-ranked biometric technology and continually refined AI algorithms present quick and accurate solutions for identifying and verifying individuals.
NEC biometrics for face, iris, fingerprint, finger vein, palm print and voice are consistently rated in the top of their class by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Our advanced biometrics algorithm is the basis of all our solutions to verify (1:1) people in a data set or identify (1:n) people who are not known.
Identity intelligence (I2) combines biometrics with forensics and document and media exploitation (DOMEX) to quickly generate actionable intelligence and identify potential threats. I2 fuses biometric and other data, including geo-fencing, mobile sensing, historical events, and transaction risk to enable decision-making capabilities for users across a spectrum of Federal operations and mission sets.
An Automated Biometrics Identification System (ABIS) is used to search biometric records for a match. Our hardware-agnostic software as a service (SaaS for ABIS) relies on the most accurate matching algorithm as validated by NIST: NEC’s NeoFace® algorithm.
Our scalable ABIS solutions are defined in two groups: AIM XM and AIM-ES. Both have search options to be determined for each application, with 1:1 and 1:n multimodal matching capabilities for fingerprint, palmprint, face, and iris records.
Streamline the process of capturing biometric data for applicant background checks, biometric enrollment, criminal arrest bookings, offender registrations and more. The NEC SmartScan™ Multimodal Capture System records face, finger, iris, and signature images and supports 1D and 2D barcode reading.
NEC SmartScan™ Multimodal Capture System provides superior biometric capture capabilities integrated with NEC’s latest multimodal biometric quality evaluation algorithms. The service-oriented architecture (SOA) provides the flexibility, reliability, and speed that applicant/background processing requires. Its modular architecture supports additional biometric modalities, such as face and iris.
Credentials and ID cards can be misplaced, stolen, forged, or destroyed. Instead, agencies and citizens can use biometric enrollment for a touchless Digital ID that will recognize them wherever the user grants permission and the technology is available. NEC enables a highly secure, accurate, and scalable solution that enables efficiencies for Federal agencies.
Recognition is the next step in accepting Digital Identity at an entry point. NEC is a leader in launching eGate boarding at airports around the world, and we are working on global entry solutions that can verify enrolled passengers prior to the security scans. As digital identities gain adoption, NSS is ready to support ePassports in the U.S.
Automated recognition enables expedited and hands-free verification clearance for pre-approved travelers, airline and airport employees, and airport security officers.
Instantly screen for identity as individuals approach Access Control Points (ACPs), secured facilities, or restricted areas without physical ID cards or fingerprints. NEC’s Biometric Base Access Management (BAM) solutions accurately identify people through vehicle windows or as they advance on foot.
BAM supports more efficient use of personnel and budget resources and can be deployed for a variety of uses across an installation or facility.

Streamline identification steps with Credential Authentication Technology paired with NEC NeoFace® recognition. This fast, accurate traveler processing solution also eliminates the need for physical contact between travelers and transportation security officers (TSOs) for enhanced safety.
Hardware components include devices for reading Personal Identity Verification (PIV) cards and travel documents, capturing face images, and an ultraviolet (UV) light for document authenticity verification. All devices are incorporated into an ergonomically designed hardware platform that is easy to maintain, durable, and sturdy—yet easily moved by a single TSO.
The ability to detected elevated body temperature (EBT) in individuals has been particularly useful during the COVID-19 pandemic. NEC’s NeoFace® Thermal Express captures body temperatures using (AI)-driven advanced video and thermal analytics, and industry-leading face recognition with trusted infrared (IR) thermal imaging sensors to verify and detect elevated body temperatures without contact.
Built with industry-leading sensors and top-ranked NEC software, NeoFace® Thermal Express achieves fast results and exceptional accuracy. NEC’s cloud-based Digital Services Platform is the secure foundation for its sensor management, biometric matcher orchestration, scalability and interoperability.
