LAS VEGAS – Safran Morpho by MorphoWAVE took the top honor at the Security Industry Association’s 2015 New Product Showcase (NPS), winning the Best New Product Award at the Wednesday’s NPS awards ceremony at ISC West.
MorphoWave is a biometric access solution featuring high-speed touchless fingerprint matching. It captures and matches four fingerprints with a single wave of the hand, for an efficient and comfortable user experience, according to Safran Morpho.
Users wave a hand over the MorphoWave sensor to be identified. Because the sensor is touchless, the surface remains clean through repeated scans. It reads wet and dry fingerprints without difficulty, which is a supporting factor in its very fast and highly accurate capture and matching rate.
Additionally, IC720 360×360 video surveillance camera by IC Realtime earned the Judges’ Choice Award.
This year’s NPS program had 110 entries from 88 companies. There were 23 categories presented during the ceremony in addition to the “Best New Product” and “Judges’ Choice Award.” The judges also presented six honorable mention awards.
