Morpho (a member of Safran group) announced that its fingerprint recognition algorithms have been ranked number one in the two most recent National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) MINEX II „ Minutiae Exchange “ (Match-on-Card) and Ongoing MINEX „ Ongoing Minutiae Exchange “ evaluations. Morpho’s algorithms excelled in both accuracy and interoperability under all conditions.

Morpho’s technology previously demonstrated its abilities in the NIST ELFT-EFS („Evaluation of Latent Fingerprint Technologies - Extended Feature Sets “) and PFT („Proprietary Fingerprint Template“) evaluations.

Morpho is specialized in personal rights and flow management applications, in particular based on biometrics, as well as secure terminals and smart cards.

“This success reflects our ongoing commitment to innovate and deliver best-in-class technology to our customers,” said Jean-Paul Jainsky, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Morpho.

“As Morpho’s subsidiary in the US, MorphoTrak is extremely pleased with the excellent results delivered by the US government’s top testing laboratory for fingerprint technology,” stated Daniel Vassy, President and CEO of MorphoTrak. “MorphoTrak is committed to advancing NIST biometrics standards and developing the innovative solutions to optimize them.” [www.morpho.com]
