AOptix Technologies announced it will host a roundtable discussion centered around iris recognition systems’ involvement in air travel at the ACI – Airport Exchange show November 27 – 30 in Abu Dhabi.

Among the major points AOptix officials are expected to detail are the company’s own deployment of its InSight two-meter stand-off iris recognition systems to the UK and the Middle East.

Specifically, AOptix officials see iris recognition system, which can identify individuals by their iris patters from up to two meters away, as having potential for increasing security while easing passenger experiences by introducing automated identification authentication to the check-in, boarding, pre-board screening and immigration processes.

In addition to AOptix, representatives from three companies that have included InSight in their airport-based solutions include Integralis, Human Recognition Systems and emaratech, which have implemented the AOptix solution at the borders of Qatar, the South Terminal at Gatwick Airport and for the UAE Government, respectively.
