CryptoMetrics, a Tuckahoe company that provides technology to identify people by their facial features, has landed a contract with the Taiwan Bureau of Consular Services. Terms of the agreement were not released.
But the company will help the Taiwanese government improve security in its issuance of passports. The company will work with Hewlett Packard, providing software that Taiwanese authorities will use to confirm the identity of those who apply for passports.
The software will capture people’s facial features and compares them to those of people on a national security watchlist.
