PRESS RELEASE - ColorID and IrisID Team to bring Biometrics Solutions to Universities and Colleges4/11/2014  Charlotte, NC - April 10, 2014 - ColorID and Iris ID have joined forces to bring their innovative biometric solutions to university campuses across the US. As the US Master Technical Distributor of Iris ID products in North America, ColorID is providing hardware, software and support for the implementation of iris recognition systems to higher education facilities and their dealer and integrator partners. "With ColorID's extensive relationships within the higher education market (over 1,000 customers) and their large and growing access control dealer and integrator network, they are a perfect partner to help support this dynamic and growing market", said Tim Meyerhoff, Director of Business Development for Iris ID. Tim Ortscheid, ColorID's Channel Manager - Dealers & Integrators, added, "The high security benefits and ease of use that have led many international data centers to install iris identification for access are now available with the speed required for high-throughput applications. The system cost has also come down dramatically to a very attractive level." Ortscheid added, "One particular application that seems to have created real excitement in the last few months is the ColorID Biometric Dining Solution."
Using Iris ID hardware and software, ColorID and Georgia Southern University worked together to implement an innovative new method of positively identifying students for access to the dining halls, without personal assistance and without contact with any devices. By simply looking at the Iris ID camera for about one second, each diner is identified and their card number is instantaneously transmitted to the meal plan system. "We are thrilled by the response from many prominent universities to the news of this system at Georgia Southern," said Danny Smith, owner and Executive Vice President of ColorID. "It seems that biometrics have become accepted by today's students as a comfortable and convenient means of identification." ColorID is now engaged with several universities, integrators and access control dealers to implement iris recognition systems in dining hall applications for both meal plans and cash POS transactions. Significant expansion is planned for other campus applications, such as securing access to athletic team locker rooms, rec centers, daycare centers and other areas of the campus that require extra security. For more information about the ColorID Biometric Dining Solution, including brochures, videos or to request a demonstration, contact ColorID at 888-682-6567 or email them at [email protected]. Iris Identification: Known to be the most accurate form of real-time biometric identification, the Iris ID system takes a picture of the subject's eyes with several special cameras within the Iris ID device. Since it is only a camera, there is no risk of harm to the user. Operating at a comfortable distance there is also no contact with the device. Enrollments can be performed in less time than it takes for an ID card to print during student orientation sessions. Unlike other forms of biometrics, iris identification has a very small number of outliers and the highest possible degree of accuracy. The iris is the most complex and randomly chaotic biometric feature of the human body, so the chance of two persons having the same iris pattern is 1 out of 10-78. Even identical twins do not have the same iris patterns.

Contact Information: Tim Ortscheid Channel Manager -- Dealers & Integrators (704) 987-2238 [email protected] Charlotte, NC - April 10, 2014 - With the increasing popularity of unlimited university meal plans, the need to accurately identify students at dining halls has become an economic reality. Additionally, hungry diners are not happy with having to wait in line as those ahead of them fumble in their wallets and purses for their ID cards.
The ColorID Biometric Dining Solution is now in operation on the campus of Georgia Southern University, using hardware and software from Iris ID. Each student looks into an Iris ID camera for about one second and when they are positively identified, their card number is instantaneously transmitted to the meal plan system. "We are thrilled by the response from many prominent universities to the news of this system at Georgia Southern," said Danny Smith, owner and Executive Vice President of ColorID. "It seems that biometric identification has become accepted by today's students as a comfortable and convenient means of identification." Richard Wynn, Director of the Eagle Card program added, "We had a conference of NACAS delegates on campus who applauded as they watched students walk up to the iris cameras, be identified and proceed into the dining hall without interruption." Tim Stahl, Associate Director of Infrastructure at GSU said that the integration with their meal plan system went smoothly, with assistance from ColorID and Iris ID. Tim Ortscheid of ColorID added, "The high security benefits that have led many international data centers to install iris identification for access are now available for high-throughput applications. The cost per user has also come down to a very attractive level." With the experience of installing hundreds of Iris ID systems in high security applications, ColorID has now worked with several universities and integrators to implement these in dining hall applications for both meal plans and cash POS transactions. Significant interest has also been expressed in other campus applications, such as athletic team locker rooms, rec centers and daycare centers.

ColorID is presenting at the 2014 NACAS South Annual Conference this April 15th, 9-10am. ColorID will present on their implementation of the ColorID Biometric Dining Solution at Georgia Southern University (GSU).
Description of Presentation: After decades of promises, biometric identification systems have finally arrived. Long used for high security applications, iris identification has developed into the fastest, most accurate and affordable biometric identification system, followed by improving fingerprint and palm vein systems. Learn more about biometric technology and how your school can move people through lines more quickly and with more accuracy at dining halls, rec centers and team locker rooms.
We will present a detailed description and videos of the full scale iris identification system that GSU is using for meal plans, in their Dining Halls. The presentation is designed for new and experienced attendees and will include live demonstrations of the technology. |
