LG Electronics Introduces Advanced Biometric Security System at 2001 COMDEX Show; Iris Access 3000 for Door Control Use Identifies Users in Less Than One Second.Business Editors COMDEX The former, premier computer trade show in the U.S. Although it grew into an end user event, it was originally created for dealers and distributors (it was the COMputer Dealers EXposition). Fall 2001 Booth # L5755 LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 7, 2001 LG Electronics, a leading Korean producer of digital products, today announced the introduction of its new biometrics security system, Iris Access 3000(TM) at Fall Comdex 2001. One of the most secure and reliable biometrics systems in the world, Iris Access 3000 captures and processes eye recognition in less than one second by using illuminated infrared light Noun 1. infrared light - electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than radio waves infrared emission, infrared radiation, infrared which is safe for the eye, meeting safety standards Safety standards are standards designed to ensure the safety of products, activities or processes, etc. They may be advisory or compulsory and are normally laid down by an advisory or regulatory body that may be either voluntary or statutory. for U.S. and European markets. The identification process operates perfectly with eyeglasses eyeglasses or spectacles, instrument or device for aiding and correcting defective sight. Eyeglasses usually consist of a pair of lenses mounted in a frame to hold them in position before the eyes. and contact lenses contact lenses contact npl → verres mpl de contact contact lenses contact npl → Kontaktlinsen pl contact lenses npl from a distance of 3 to 10 inches. "We are a world leader in iris recognition Iris recognition is a method of biometric authentication that uses pattern recognition techniques based on high-resolution images of the irides of an individual's eyes. Not to be confused with another less prevalent ocular-based technology, retina scanning, iris recognition uses products, the unrivaled and most accurate and reliable biometric available, to identify and authenticate individuals for physical access security," said Peter McDermott Peter 'The Man with the Cap' McDermott is a retired inter-county Irish Gaelic footballer for County Meath in Ireland. He enjoyed much success play inter-county football in the forty's & fiftys's on the Meath team. , Executive Vice President, LG Executive Offices for the Americas. "Iris Access 3000 is poised to leverage advanced biometric technology to deliver the best identification solution for maximum security. The product's non-contact process, enhanced processing distance, and faster recognition speeds are drawing great interest from corporate users." A report from market research firm IDC predicts that the biometric market will surge to $1.8 billion by 2004 - an annual growth rate of 61 percent. Vertical industries including banking, health care and government agencies are increasingly turning to iris scanners, voice recognition software and fingerprint scanners as simple, cost-effective means of securing networks and improving accountability for information and facility access. Iris Access 3000 will be available globally through distributors. Components of the Iris Access 3000 for door control use include Enrollment Optical Unit, Remote Optical Unit, Identification Control Unit, Frame Grabber A device that accepts standard TV signals and digitizes the current video frame into a single, bitmapped still image. Frame grabbers can be stand-alone devices that plug into a port on the computer or a function built into the video capture board or display adapter. Board, Door Interface Board, and Super Server PC. Product Description - Enrollment Optical Unit, EOU3000 is placed on a desk or table adjacent to the Server PC. EOU3000 contains all the elements necessary to initiate the enrollment process, illuminate the iris and acquire an iris image. - Remote Optical Unit, ROU3000 is installed adjacent to the door being controlled. ROU3000 is composed of 2 parts, the optical imager with the front enclosure and the rear enclosure. After the rear enclosure is mounted on or recessed into the wall adjacent to the controlled entrance/exit, the optical imager with the front enclosure is mounted within the rear enclosure. ROU3000 contains the elements for iris image acquisition, and voice message and light indication to inform the user on their recognition status. - Identification Control Unit, ICU3000 is installed on the wall inside the protected or controlled area in order to discourage tampering with the computer. ICU3000 creates an IrisCodeTM from the input iris image through ROU3000 and compares this IrisCodeTM with pre-memorized iris records. If a matched IrisCodeTM is found, ICU3000 generates a signal to open the door. ICU3000 can control the access of 2 doors with one Frame Grabber Board (FGB) and one Door Interface Board (DIB) inserted. By adding one FGB and DIB, ICU3000 can control access to 4 doors.

Door Interface Board provides the connection between ROU3000 and the Mother Board in ICU3000. Optional replaceable Door Interface Board can integrate with Wiegand or RS422 card reader system and with Access Panel. - The Super Server serves as an enrollment, monitoring and management station. These roles can both be performed via one PC as well as performed via separate PCs. Super Server transfers database records from one server to the other server by request. The server manages stations and ICUs. The enrollment station performs the iris registration with EOU (character, humour) EOU - The mnemonic of a mythical ASCII control character (End Of User) that would make an ASR-33 Teletype explode on receipt. This construction parodies the numerous obscure delimiter and control characters left in ASCII from the days when it was associated more 3000. The Monitoring Station monitors the status of ICU, ROU, EOU and doors being controlled. The Management Station not only maintains old and new database of users but also allows downloading of necessary data to ICU3000.
