Lumidigm Selects Analogics as Biometrics Distributor in India
India’s Largest Handheld Terminal Manufacturer Adds Lumidigm’s
Biometric Sensors to Product Line
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) December 3, 2008 --
Analogics Tech India Ltd. is now Lumidigm’s sole distributor in India
and Sri Lanka. Lumidigm’s top-performing and robust multispectral
fingerprint technology is an ideal solution for the environmental and
user challenges of the region. Analogics is the largest handheld
terminal manufacturer in India and has an extensive local technical
support team. “With robust Lumidigm sensors and first-rate technical
support from Analogics, Indian companies and agencies will finally be
able to deploy biometrics that work across the population,” said Matthew
Ennis, Vice President of Business Development at Lumidigm.
India has a diverse population, field environment and geography that can
be challenging for many biometric scanners. “Before we were introduced
to Lumidigm, we tested most of the common fingerprint sensors and were
not at all satisfied,” said Surender Reddy, Managing Director of
Analogics. “Lumidigm came to us with a biometric sensor technology that
is capable of solving problems, in India, with failure to enroll and
failure to acquire in particular.”
Mobile handheld biometrics can bring identity management to remote
areas, extending services such as banking to communities that otherwise
might not have access. Lumidigm and Analogics joined forces earlier this
year to evaluate Lumidigm’s fingerprint sensors in numerous applications
in India including rural banking, college/school attendance, food ration
cards (Civil Supplies), and construction site and factory access
control. The multispectral biometric technology demonstrably
out-performed the existing optical and capacitive sensor technologies in
all deployment environments.
“The customers feel more comfortable due to the local presence and
support of the remarkable multispectral fingerprint technology,” said
Mr. Reddy. “The Lumidigm scanners work on our most difficult-to-image
users, making several applications a real possibility for the first time
in India.”
