Artec Broadway 3D

3D Face Recognition
walk-through
device

The Broadway line of hi-end 3D biometric devices
and its 3D face recognition technology have been in
use for over 8 years.

Broadway 3D is known to be the first device in the world to be able to visually identify a person as easily as people identify one another.

Identification takes a split second. Walk or even run past the device, glancing at it briefly – and it will identify you among tens of thousands of registered users. Unlike other biometric devices, Broadway 3D does not require direct physical contact or exact positioning in front of the recognition system. It is capable of authenticating people while they are standing, walking or even running.

Similar to the way in which we recognize one another, Broadway 3D has a 3D vision system which remembers the unique three-dimensional shape of the face. Unlike human vision, however, the device is able to differentiate nuanced geometry with the accuracy of up to a few fractions of a millimeter and tell apart even identical twins, which makes Broadway 3D one of the most accurate biometric devices on the market.

The
technology

Reconstruction algorithms and proprietary hardware enable accurate recognition of objects in motion.

Fast and accurate acquisition of unique three-dimensional face shapes using structured light.

Calculation is performed on the basis of a 40,000 point infrared grid projected at a parallax angle on the object’s surface.

Ability to distinguish nuanced geometry with high accuracy, allowing the system to tell even identical twins apart.

Patented technology: four patent applications filed in the United States and two in Russia.
