Suprema has launched BioStation 3, a contactless access control terminal specialised for facial recognition.
In addition to facial recognition various other contactless credential options are offered to enhance user convenience, including QR codes, barcodes, mobile access cards and RFID cards. BioStation 3 features increased usability and a compact, slim body that is reduced in size by 47% compared to Suprema’s predecessor, FaceStation F2, allowing for easy installation on any door, from small offices to enterprise environments.
In addition, Suprema has utilised a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) to provide facial authentication. BioStation 3 is an ISO/IEC 27001 certified edge device that can run AI algorithms locally with an embedded NPU to maximise the performance of the AI engine. Accurate authentication is possible even for faces with various types and colours of masks, hairstyles, hats and glasses.
One of the initiatives in protecting personal data is Face Template on Mobile which is an authentication method independently developed by Suprema that allows users to store and manage their facial authentication template on their mobile phone without having to store it in the company’s database.
