Lumidigm has announced that it has entered a partnership with identity solutions distributor IdentyTech Solutions for distribution in Israel.

The new agreement will see IdentyTech’s terminals and other identity solutions integrated with Lumidigm’s multispectral fingerprint scanners, which use both surface and subsurface fingerprint data for a more accurate print match in both good and poor environments. In addition to the agreement expanding Lumidigm’s reach, IdentyTech is also involved in field testing Lumidigm’s products bringing them new clients as well as new applications for use of the technology such as civil ID and access control applications.  

Lumidigm has announced it has ported its Mariner line of multispectral fingerprint readers to be compatible with computers running on Microsoft’s Windows operating system.

Beyond the multispectral aspect of the sensors, which is capable of reading subsurface aspects of a fingerprint for more accurate authentication and functionality in otherwise poor environments, Lumidigm is touting the reader’s durability and reliability pushing it as a perfect solution for a large number of industries including construction, health care and heavy industry.
