SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- Integrated Biometrics, LLC (IntegratedBiometrics.com), developer of the world’s smallest and lightest FBI-compliant fingerprint scanners, is pleased to announce that its Columbo fingerprint scanner is being used to verify the identity of teachers in remote areas of Pakistan. Integrated Biometrics partner Intellitech is assisting in the project which is funded by the World Bank, offering financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world.
“Integrated Biometrics’ technology is a great fit for mobile identity verification in any environment due to its reliability, ease of use and operation in direct sunlight,” Steve Thies, CEO, said, adding, “The fact that our products are being used to improve education for hundreds of thousands of children is incredibly humbling and rewarding.”
In April 2015, the Pakistan Education Department began a pilot program where representatives travel to different villages to verify the identity of teachers within remote villages using the Columbo scanner and a matching database built by the Department.
The scope of the project is 150,000 educators within Pakistan, with the ultimate goal of having real-time attendance monitoring in each village.
Intellitech Directors Wayne Jonathan Davis and Hunain Ali Durrani explained they considered many fingerprint scanners for the project and selected Integrated Biometrics’ light emitting sensor (LES) technology to drive the success of the program, as it works well in all environments.
