AI-Powered Biometric Solutions
Age estimation and facial recognition technology
Integrated Age Estimation
Integrate into a machine to automate age restricted sales at a self-service checkout or prevent underage gambling at a gaming machine.
Automated Access Control
ICU Pro uses facial recognition to automate access control to buildings and machinery. Never forget your key or pass again, your face is all you need!
Anonymous Age Estimation
An all-in-one device that performs anonymous age estimation to assist with the sale of age restricted goods such as alcohol and tobacco.
Improve efficiency and free up checkout attendants with our leading age verification technology.

Our Technology
• We design, train and fine-tune all our own algorithms
• All algorithms run locally on the hardware – quick, no internet required (ICU Pro & ICU Lite)
We use our own algorithms to recognise faces and verify age. We do not use publicly available databases for training or tuning like many other systems, favouring our own extensive datasets especially chosen to reduce gender and skin tone bias. Our algorithms are not publicly available, which makes our system, and customer data more secure.
• Complete intelligent solution
• Local processing
• Quick outputs
Our edge solution gives customers an immediate response. Both age verification and facial recognition technology processes are performed locally giving a more reliable output and faster response.
• Non-instrusive
• Instant real-time results
• Included as standard
Our range of biometric products, for age estimation and access control, uses single-image passive liveness detection. We have built, trained and tuned our own neural networks using an extensive data sample containing millions of images, to create an in-house, bespoke Presentation Attack Detection technique.

FAQs
Edge technology refers to alogrithms which run locally on specially designed hardware. The processing is done on the local hardware and not on a cloud based platform.
This has many advantages, among them are:
1) Speed – no data is sent over the internet to get processed. All the processing is done on the local hardware.
2) No Internet required – since all processing is performed locally, the edge hardware can operate completely off-line.
3) Security – since no sensitive data is sent over the Internet there is no chance that this data can be intercepted
There are many advantages to using our own algorithm. This covers both performance and security aspects.
When building our own algorithm we can ensure the algorithm is optimised to run on our own bespoke hardware (edge solution).
Using our own algorithm also means we have the opportunity to find weaknesses and improve performance. This may be acquiring better training data, employing different models or tuning the algorithm more effectively.
When algorithms are publicly available (open source) then they also become a security risk, as people can access the algorithms and probe for weaknesses, which they may then use to exploit your system.
We have built, trained and tuned our own age estimation algorithms using our own training datasets.
Combining a multi-layer intelligence approach with a wide and diverse range of training data results in world leading age estimation. Our age estimation range has obtained independent certification (ACCS 1:2020 Technical Requirements for Age Estimation Technologies) that confirms that our products can be confidently deployed in a Challenge 25 scenario.
The independent test results show that our products, on average underestimates 18-year-olds by 0.19 years and has an MAE (Mean Absolute Error) of 1.22 years.
While the performance is directly related to the specific camera in general:
• It is recommended to operate with Light levels from 70 lux (low level sodium bulb) to 1500 lux (bright LED gantry).
• The ICU will work in sunlight (>1500lux) if the camera is positioned to avoid direct glare.
The performance of our products is related to the quality of the image provided. A live view of the image can be viewed to ensure maximum quality for setup.
