In fast-moving transportation hubs like airports, train terminals, and border checkpoints, identity verification must be fast, secure, and non-intrusive.
With X-Telcom’s Palm Vein Authentication, immigration and security teams can process travelers in under 0.35 seconds, using a biometric method that’s accurate, tamper-proof, and fully contactless.
