Sagem Sécurité: Biometric ID Documents. The latest reports issued by the American National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), state that Sagem Sécurité’s fingerprint recognition algorithms have outpaced 19 other analyzed algorithms in terms of accuracy, interoperability and speed.

Tests analyzed the performance of the biometric algorithms embedded in a chip, such as found on an ID card or a passport.

The chip itself performs the comparison of the document bearer’s fingerprint with the fingerprint recorded on the chip. This mechanism called Match On Card (MOC) allows keeping all fingerprint information strictly confidential.
