BioLink’s fingerprint biometrics will be used for the State of Hawaii’s driver license program. The Hawaii driver license system integrates both fingerprint matching and facial recognition technologies into the card issuance process.
For the Hawaii project, BioLink supplied its optical fingerprint scanners. BioLink collaborated with Marquis ID Systems and Trijay Corporation on this project.
Incorporating biometrics into driver licenses is an option states have to comply with Real ID requirements. A biometric-enhanced driver license system aids in addressing the following key problems: issuance of multiple licenses to a single driver; issuance of a single license to multiple drivers, and detection of counterfeited driver licenses.
