Vision-Box, a biometrics solutions provider, has come out with an automatic border control e-gate that supports multimodal biometric authentication.

This new e-gate is a thin system that contains vb i-match, a single sourced design that is modular and flexible and can be adapted to business requirements and infrastructure constraints that would otherwise disrupt passenger flow. It has the ability to cope with industry standards such as ICAO. The e-gate supports iris, fingerprint and facial biometrics.

Yellowknife Airport (YZF) located in Northwest Territories, Canada is using an integrated RFID solution provided by TagMaster for hands-free shuttle and maintenance vehicle access.

In conjunction with ACTS (Access Control Tracking System) Essential, powered by ArmID, the RFID solution enables YZF to add vehicles and activate tags, deactivate lost or stolen tags, open gates remotely, manage access schedules, and generate reports, all from a Web-enabled interface using any standard Web browser.
