Gate and Vehicle Solution

Based on plusID identity verification technology

Keep traffic moving while insuring the identity of drivers and vehicles

As the need for heightened security pervades every corner of society new challenges have been

created for the movement of vehicles through gates. Whether it is a port, a military base, or a

logistics center, vehicle traffic is slowed by traditional, manual methods of

verifying driver identity at portals and gates impacting productivity and the

flow of commerce.

Facility operators need to be able to quickly and reliably verify the identity

of drivers and vehicles without imposing solutions that violate privacy, add

substantial costs or create additional security risks for the organization.

An ideal approach would be to have a “fast lane” for drivers and vehicles

that we “know”, enabling them to proceed through checkpoints without

stopping. Conventional manual checks would still be used for the smaller

population of drivers and vehicles that are not pre-qualified.

While it is possible to install RFID technology on a truck for remote

identification of the vehicle, the challenge has been how to verify the

identity of the driver. A known vehicle with the wrong driver could present

as much, or more, of a risk than the presence of a completely unknown

vehicle.

Until now it has not been possible to reliably verify driver identity without

requiring a full stop for either manual inspection of identity credentials or

for execution of a biometric verification at a fixed, mounted reader. The

Privaris plusID Gate and Vehicle system changes that by offering the

world’s first, wireless, personal, biometric identity verification solution.

Personal biometrics

With Privaris plusID, drivers verify their identity by swiping their finger on their own key fob

biometric device as they approach the gate. The device compares the live fingerprint to the

fingerprint template securely stored inside their device and upon a match, wirelessly transmits

encrypted credential information (not biometric data) to the gate control system which validates

the access rights for that driver and vehicle.

Easy integration with physical access control systems

The Privaris gate system can be configured to output a Wiegand data stream – a standard

communications signal that is compatible with virtually all access control systems.

A New Approach

Personal, Mobile Biometrics

for Gate and Vehicle Security

∙ verifies driver identity

without requiring vehicles

to stop

∙ matches driver to vehicle

∙ works with commercially

available physical access

control systems for gate

operation

∙ works with commercially

available solutions for

vehicle starting and locking

∙ cannot be shared, useless

if lost or stolen

Protecting privacy and minimizing corporate risk The plusID unit eliminates the privacy concerns associated with conventional biometric systems. The user’s biometric data is never collected or stored in a database. Users enroll directly into their own personal plusID unit where the data is encrypted and securely stored. It is never released or transmitted. Rather than delivering biometric data as an access credential, plusID uses it simply to “unlock” the transmission of standard identity credentials.

directional if this is needed. The 50 deg SMC antenna is recommended this for installations that are a “generic” single lane. This antenna in a standard set up was able to communicate at about 25 degrees off center providing about a 50 degree cone of reception. Like all antennas, there are side lobes that allow you to communicate in about a 10 foot circle around the antenna with no attenuation. The approximate pattern is a 10 foot circle around the antenna with a 50 degree beam width beyond that.
