Follow on Google News | HID Global Acquires Biometric Leader Lumidigm, Enhances Authentication PortfolioAcquisition brings unique capabilities for intelligent biometric fingerprint acquisition and authentication.
By: HID Global “Lumidigm’ Lumidigm’s technology solves problems with traditional biometric technology, whose contact-based measurement accuracy is degraded by non-ideal skin condition, poorly-defined or damaged fingerprints, and adverse environmental conditions. In contrast, multispectral imaging technology uses multiple light spectrums and advanced polarization techniques to extract unique fingerprint characteristics from both the surface and subsurface of the skin. This additional data enables multispectral imaging-based solutions to deliver the highest-quality fingerprint image and to more effectively discriminate real from imposter or “spoof” fingerprints. “This acquisition will enable Lumidigm to take advantage of HID Global’s size, channel and product development strengths to exploit a variety of important new market opportunities,” Imperial Capital, LLC served as the exclusive financial advisor to Lumidigm in this transaction.
