GripID and Xperix introduce a new kind of KYC handheld
In the ever-evolving digital security landscape, GripID and Xperix are announcing their collaboration in the release of a unique multimodal biometric device, already deployed in the Middle East.
The new handheld GripID FAP20 device features Xperix’s BM-Slim2 fingerprint scanner ensures top-notch security with PAD level 1 & 2 compliance and is ideal for field operations. Along with a smartcard reader and a large battery, the GripID is perfect in KYC situations like sim-card registration for telecom.
“We are proposing an innovative approach for professional biometry: with devices to be paired with your smartphone and achieve tasks like identity control we are years ahead of expensive and bulky biometric equipment.” said Eric Fouchard, President at GripID.
Customers can benefit from their previous investments in smartphones or tablets and upgrade them with professional biometrics features brought by GripID without investing in a fleet of expensive single-purpose tablets.
Regardless of their operating system, it is designed to be easily paired via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth with any smartphone, tablet, or computer. This innovative pairable new GripID FAP20 also comes in a 5G integrated version with a 6inch display for a more traditional experience.
“BM-Slim2 is the slimmest optical FAP20 scanner module, which is FBI-certified, PAD level 1 & 2 compliant, and operates under direct sunlight. With outperforming technologies and reliability, it is the perfect fit for GripID FAP20 device.“ explains John Lee, Managing Director at Xperix.
