Anviz Unveils M7 Palm Access Control Device

Leave a comment

The Most Reliable and Secure Contactless Solution to Date

UNION CITY, Calif., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Anviz, a brand of Xthings, a global leader in intelligent security solutions, announces the upcoming release of its latest access control solution, the M7 Palm, equipped with cutting-edge Palm Vein Recognition technology. This innovative device is designed to provide superior accuracy, security, and convenience to high-security and privacy-sensitive environments in industries such as banking, data centers, laboratories, airports, prisons, and government institutions. Launching globally today, Anviz is gearing up to revolutionize the way users interact with access control systems.

Your palm is your key to access.
Your palm is your key to access.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device offers a seamless access experience, allowing users to unlock doors with a wave of the hand. Using Palm Vein Recognition, a top-tier biometric security method, it addresses the limitations of facial and fingerprint recognition by providing a more secure, non-invasive, and user-friendly solution.

Palm Vein Recognition captures the unique pattern of veins inside a person’s palm using near-infrared light. Hemoglobin absorbs the light, creating a vein map, which is converted into a secure digital template through advanced algorithms, ensuring accurate identification. Unlike facial recognition, which may raise privacy concerns, or fingerprint scans, which can be affected by wear, palm vein recognition is discreet, reliable, and harder to forge. Its non-contact nature also makes it more hygienic, ideal for environments with strict health protocols.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device leverages this advanced technology to provide a seamless and secure user experience. With a False Rejection Rate (FRR) of ≤0.01% and a False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of ≤0.00008%, the accuracy of the system far exceeds that of traditional fingerprint or face recognition methods, offering a higher level of protection for critical infrastructure and sensitive information.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device stands out for its numerous advantages, making it an ideal solution for high-security environments. The benefits of using palm veins are as follows:

  • Security: Palm Vein recognition uses a living biometric, making it nearly impossible for intruders to copy or replicate the pattern. This ensures a higher level of security than external biometric methods like fingerprints or facial recognition.
  • Reliability: The Palm Vein structure remains largely unchanged over time, providing long-term stability and consistency in identification.
  • Privacy: Since the technology scans internal veins rather than external features, it is less intrusive and more acceptable to users who are concerned about privacy.
  • Hygiene: The non-contact nature of the technology allows users to simply hover their hand over the scanner without needing to physically touch any surface, making it an ideal solution for environments that prioritize cleanliness and hygiene.
  • Precision: Palm Vein technology captures a larger surface area than fingerprint or face recognition systems, enabling the scanner to collect more data points for comparison, resulting in highly accurate identification.

Moreover, the features of the M7 Palm are designed by meticulously polishing the needs of the users:

  • Enhanced Human-Machine Interaction: Intelligent ToF laser-ranging provides accurate distance measurement, with an OLED display ensuring recognition at precise distances and delivering clear notifications to the user.
  • High-intensity protective design for outdoor: With a narrow metal exterior design,  the standard IP66 design ensures the device works well outdoors, and the IK10 vandal-proof standard ensures a robust and stable installation.
  • PoE Powering and Communications: PoE support provides centralized power management and efficiency with the ability to remotely reboot devices, making it a convenient and flexible solution for many network applications.
  • Two-Factor Verification Security: Supports multiple identity combinations, choosing any two of Palm Vein, RFID card, and PIN Codes to complete the identification, ensuring absolute security in special places.

As security becomes a growing priority, demand for biometric solutions like palm vein recognition is surging. By 2029, the global market for palm vein biometrics is projected to reach $3.37 billion, with a CAGR of over 22.3%. The Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector is expected to lead this growth alongside military, security, and data center applications.

“As a milestone product in the biometrics and security industry, till next June, Xthings will work with more than 200 partners to bring the product to markets such as North America, Western Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific, empowering the clients to enjoy a safer and more convenient experience. $3.3 Billion market share is there, let’s work together!” said Peter Chen, Product Marketing Manager. [To talk about partnership]

Though still in the early stages of market adoption, Anviz is committed to advancing palm vein technology. With limited competition, the M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device is poised to make a significant impact. Anviz continues to innovate, delivering smarter, safer, and more convenient security solutions globally.

Zoloz Receives 2021 IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Award for its Work Supporting Financial Inclusion Using e-KYC Technology

Leave a comment

SINGAPORE, Sept. 14, 2021 — Zoloz, an electronic Know Your Customer (e-KYC) technology provider, has received the 2021 IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Award for its work enabling users of bKash, Bangladesh’s largest mobile financial service provider, to open digital wallet accounts remotely using biometrics. Zoloz was the winner of the Digital Trust & Stewardship category and tied as overall winner of the Real Results Awards.

Now in their seventh year, the IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Awards recognize global IT providers that have enabled genuine, measurable, and future-enabling change in the global financial services industry. These providers supply the technological backbone of the financial services industry, an industry in which IDC Financial Insights forecasts IT spending worldwide to be USD 590 billion by 2025.

"2020 proved to be a year that tested the industry’s ability to stay resilient in the face of challenges on multiple fronts. This year’s IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results program describes examples of financial institutions and technology providers partnering to overcome those challenges in real, substantive ways," said Jerry Silva, vice president at IDC Financial Insights. "IDC congratulates the vendors that stepped up to the demands of an unusual year of disruption and helped financial organizations get back to the business of innovation."

"We are honored to be a winner of the 2021 IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Awards," said Chen Jidong, the general manager of Zoloz. "With innovative technologies like AI, risk management and biometrics, Zoloz’s e-KYC solution significantly increases financial inclusion for underbanked communities in remote identification areas by allowing financial institutions to complete due diligence processes without the need for physical verification."

Almost half of Bangladeshi adults were unbanked just a few years ago due to a lack of a trusted ID verification system. Zoloz’s integration of e-KYC technology allowed previously unbanked families to verify their identity with ease. On average, it reduced the user process from several days to just 3 minutes and increased the verification success rate from 65% to over 90%.

Zoloz’s fully automated e-KYC solution has helped bKash onboard over 23 million e-wallet users in Bangladesh, taking the country one step closer to its goal of total financial inclusion by 2024. Amid the outbreak of COVID-19, Zoloz’s e-KYC solution helped the government of Bangladesh efficiently distribute aid via bKash to over 5 million families who lost their primary source of income due to the pandemic.

"Zoloz’s bKash project is an exemplary case of how innovation has responded to the business need with effective and measurable results. The inclusive finance aspect of it will have profound impact of how digitally enabled financial services can be expanded to those underdeveloped markets in need," said Eric Fei Gao, director of IDC Financial Insights.

So far, Zoloz’s e-KYC technology has been selected for use in e-wallets including GCash in the Philippines, TnGD in Malaysia, Dana in Indonesia, TrueMoney in Thailand and banks including Mandiri Bank in Indonesia and Maybank in Malaysia, having served more than 100 million users in total across the world.

About Zoloz

Zoloz combines industry-leading technologies including advanced biometrics, spoof detection, Optical Character Recognition and risk management to provide a comprehensive electronic Know Your Customer (e-KYC) technology solution that protects, connects and enhances user identity. Its technology meets the most stringent international standard for biometric and privacy protections technologies.

Under the Patronage of His Highness Sheikh Theyab bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Abu Dhabi Early Childhood Authority’s WED Movement Engages Global Experts to Drive Innovation, Excellence in Early Childhood Development

Leave a comment

ABU DHABI, UAE, Aug. 17, 2021 — Abu Dhabi’s World Early Childhood Development Movement (WED Movement) has launched a new initiative bringing together global experts to develop innovative and actionable solutions advancing Abu Dhabi’s vision to be a leader in Early Childhood Development.

Cecilia Vaca Jones, Executive Director of the Bernard van Leer Foundation, and Chair of the BWG
Cecilia Vaca Jones, Executive Director of the Bernard van Leer Foundation, and Chair of the BWG

WED Movement was established earlier this year under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Theyab bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Court and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Early Childhood Authority (ECA). Under ECA, WED Movement is harnessing the expertise of a multidisciplinary group of 21 early child development experts representing a mix of academics, healthcare practitioners, policy influencers, children’s media and entertainment specialists, global business leaders and technical consultants. The experts come from several world-renowned institutions such as UNICEF, World Bank, UNESCO and Harvard University, as well as a number of global companies in technology and entertainment.

Participants are working in one of three Breakthrough Working Groups (BWGs), each focused on a unique and important aspect of how children’s mental, physical and cognitive abilities develop in the earliest years of life, from pregnancy to 8 years old. The BWGs are focused on Emotional Wellbeing & Social Interaction, Tech Humanity for Children, and 21st Century Lifestyle.

To date the BWGs have held nearly 100 strategic planning sessions and met with more than 65 parents, children, teachers and ECD experts in the UAE as part of their work towards creation of a series of innovative solutions that promote the holistic healthy development of Abu Dhabi’s young children. These solutions will also help parents and caregivers address some of the most common challenges faced during the earliest years of child growth and development. Outcomes from these sessions include policy recommendations, creation of specific programs and initiatives, development of products, as well as guidelines to address the identified issues.

Team members are coordinating directly with a range of government and social service entities, including Abu Dhabi Department of Community Development, Abu Dhabi Department of Health, Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge and Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination. They also have commissioned independent research on such issues as child screen time, technology use in the home, play time and social interaction. 

WED Movement and the work of the BWGs reflects Abu Dhabi’s commitment to deliver on its vision to invest in breakthrough innovation in early childhood development with the goal of nurturing a generation of conscious youth who have the knowledge and skills to adapt to rapidly changing societal challenges and contribute to building a better society. The BWGs aim to play a significant role driving the level of innovation needed while helping establish Abu Dhabi as a global role model for and contributor to excellence in early childhood development. 

The BWGs work under the guidance of Cecilia Vaca Jones, Executive Director of the Bernard van Leer Foundation, and Chair of the BWG, alongside His Excellency Omar Saif Ghobash, Assistant Minister for Cultural Affairs at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MoFAIC), and Co-Chair of the BWG.

Chair Cecilia Vaca-Jones said: "This Breakthrough Working Group approach enables us to tap into a global collection of world-class early childhood development experts with a single mission and focus: helping Abu Dhabi create the best possible environment to give our children the opportunity in life each and every one deserves. And these new programs, policies and initiatives that we pioneer here at home can become models for early childhood development that are adopted in nations around the world."

The BWGs are currently researching and assessing issues as well as exploring potential solutions related to the following themes:

  • Emotional Wellbeing and Social Interaction: Creating an ecosystem that can help reduce emotional strains on children, parents and caregivers while promoting continuous interactions with children that help them establish important social interaction skills at early ages.
  • Tech Humanity for Children: Looking at how to ensure that children are ready for the rapidly growing level of technology in their lives and are well aware of and protected from risks in order to best reap the many benefits these new technologies offer.
  • 21st Century Lifestyle: Fostering an Abu Dhabi-wide environment that promotes a better lifestyle at home, in school and across the community and facilitates positive physical and mental health of children.

Co-Chair H.E. Omar Saif Ghobash said: "These themes represent both challenges and opportunities for fostering early childhood development not only in Abu Dhabi but across the UAE and worldwide. Through this team of experts and the BWG approach, we will look to generate recommended programs, policies and initiatives that can have a positive impact across the early childhood development ecosystem on behalf of our children, including parents and caregivers, academia, government policymakers, social support groups and the private sector."

Dr. Nikki Martyn, Program Head of Early Childhood Studies at the University of Guelph-Humber and a member of the one of the BWGs said: "Being a part of WED Movement is a truly unique opportunity to take the learnings and experiences of early childhood development experts from around the world and develop initiatives and recommendations that can quickly be put in place to directly benefit the children of Abu Dhabi. Over the longer term, we hope to see the outcomes of WED Movement work benefitting children around the world."

SeeSo is an AI-based eye-tracking SDK (Software Development Kit) platform which runs through virtually any device’s front-facing camera or webcam. The SDK could be downloaded anywhere in the world from its SaaS web platform "seeso.io" to innovate the mobile web and app industry.

Since the initial launch in April 2020, SeeSo has been updating SDK to strengthen the accuracy, robustness, and development platforms. Recently it added User Status APIs to help developers to track attention levels, drowsiness, and blinking more easily.

In 2020, SeeSo was applied to tablet PC educational services of top-tier Korean companies, including LG U+ and VISANG M Learning, enabling self-directed learning even in situations that require remote education, without a drop in ability to concentrate. For Millie’s Library, an e-book company, SeeSo was applied as a UI/UX enabling a book’s pages to be "turned" by the user moving his or her eyes, opening up a new world for vision interfaces. VisualCamp is slated to sign supply contracts for its eye-tracking technology with prominent Korean and foreign educational companies.

VisualCamp’s eye-tracking technology is characterized by its ability to broaden a client’s range of business because of its applicability to many sectors, including education, advertising and healthcare. The company recently hired medical experts and research staff for digital healthcare (finding digital cures for xerophthalmia, ADHD, dementia, developmental/cognitive disabilities) as a means of diversifying its area of business.

"It is an honor to receive the highest innovation award given for Industry X products, which will lead the world’s digital transformation, as well as to be recognized by mobile industry experts for having technological and business potential. Our goal is to apply our eye-tracking technologies to an even wider range of industries and constantly engage in innovation to enhance connectivity and accessibility for people throughout the world," said YunChan Suk, CEO of VisualCamp. 

The GLOMO Awards celebrate the companies and individuals driving innovation in the rapidly evolving mobile industry. They were set up 26 years ago by the GSMA. The GSMA represents the interests of mobile operators worldwide, uniting more than 750 operators with almost 400 companies in the broader mobile ecosystem.
