Step 1

ID document verification

We check the authenticity of more than 7,400 identity documents from 196 countries. 
Verification using white light, infrared light, and ultraviolet light.
Validation of document-specific security features (up to 20 different visual and invisible features).
ID document scans are only processed locally at the kiosk and are deleted after successful verification.
Step 2

Liveness detection

With a 3D Depth Vision Camera setup, we deliver the most secure user verification through facial matching technology and detection of life.
Step 3

Facial matching

Artificial intelligence and biometric technology is used to match a 3D real-time portrait with the image on the ID document
Comparison of biometric reference points on the image on the ID document with the 3D depth portrait taken onsite.
After a successful authentication, an RFID card with individual access authorization is issued automatically.
Optional Biometric Features

Two-factor biometric enrollment

Due to the high flexibility of the system, essentry enrolls relevant biometric features and transfers them to the access control system. essentry can securely enroll two biometric features for a highly secure end-to-end access process.
