  1. Iris Recognition Iris Recognition is sometimes confused with Retinal Scanning which is the biometric often shown in the movies. These are two completely different biometrics. Retinal Scanning requires a bright light to be shined onto the retina, the back of the eye, from a very close range and is very intrusive. Iris Recognition simply takes a picture of the Iris, the colored part of the eye from a comfortable distance of 3 to 10 inches.

  2. Image Capture The iris image is captured using a camera similar to that in a home video camcorder. The iris is illuminated with low level IR illumination similar to that used in a wireless television remote control.

  3. The LG3000 has the following UL approved eye safety certifications; IEC 60825-1, ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96. “The LED’s used are similar to those used in TV remote controls, toys and other consumer products. The energy emitted by the LED’s is not at all harmful to the human eye even under all conceivable conditions of normal use – and even misuse. The energy entering the eye is far less than that received when a person stands outside in sunlight or looks at an incandescent lamp”. - Quote from Dr. Sliney’s eye safety report. The LG3000 camera, the same type used in a camcorder, only takes a picture of the iris (front of the eye) and is completely non-invasive. Safety of Iris Biometrics
