CANTON, Ohio -- Diebold is following NCR down the path of offering iris recognition options on its latest generation of ATMs.
According to the company, its iris recognition ATM requires no card or PIN. Like the NCR system, the Diebold ATM scans a user's iris, matching it to a known database. A match between the user's "live" iris and a biometric iris template contained within a database initiates the ATM transaction.
Diebold's biometric ATM lets consumers choose how they want to access their accounts -- with biometric technology or through standard card and PIN-based transaction systems.
The biometric ATM combines proprietary Diebold software with iris imaging equipment from Sensar. The Diebold application compares and recognizes the iris image with images stored in a centralized database.
As a global technology leader and innovative services provider, Diebold Nixdorf delivers the solutions that enable financial institutions to improve efficiencies, protect assets and better serve consumers.
