FST Biometrics identification access solution to secure new facility of world’s largest diamond exchange

by Brianna Crandall — July 24, 2015—FST Biometrics, a global biometric identification solutions provider with technology roots in Israel, recently announced that its cutting-edge secure access solution has been deployed by the Israel Diamond Exchange (IDE) at the entry point of its new state-of-the-art polishing house.

FST’s award-winning In Motion Identification (IMID) technology combines a unique fusion of facial recognition and body behavior biometric analytics technologies.

Providing a non-invasive and highly secure system, in-motion access is engineered to guarantee security for the permanent staff and hundreds of frequent visitors to IDE’s polishing house — while allowing them hands-free, hassle-free entry.

Located outside the IDE’s main campus, the polishing house requires an access solution that guarantees security for the diamonds it processes daily — worth millions of dollars — without impacting the access speed of hundreds of staff and visitors.

FST was selected after completing a rigorous trial period, in which the company’s IMID Access successfully passed all testing for the highest level of security, and was subsequently piloted at the world-renowned International Diamond Week.
