IBX
Identify People. Wherever the Work Takes You.
IBX turns Android devices into flexible mobile biometric tools, combining smartphone capabilities with Integrated Biometrics hardware to help law enforcement, border security, and other public safety agencies collect and identify people in the field, beyond traditional biometric workstations.
One Platform. Different Missions.
Law Enforcement
Give officers access to biometric identification capabilities beyond the station.
Border Security
Capture and verify identity where border operations actually happen, including locations with limited infrastructure.
Interior & Investigative Operations
IBX puts biometric tools in the hands of officers working away from traditional facilities.
Drug Enforcement
Biometric identification can help investigators establish identity across local, national, and international investigations.
Why IBX?
Mobile
Bring biometric collection and identification into the field rather than bringing every subject to a fixed location.
Flexible
Use a smartphone camera for contactless collection or connect purpose-built fingerprint and iris hardware when the mission requires it.
Multi-Modal
Collect fingerprints, face, iris, palmprints and supporting identity information through one mobile platform.
Connected or Offline
Support field operations across cellular, Wi-Fi and satellite networks, with offline operation for environments where connectivity is limited.
Built for Field Operations
IBX is designed around the needs of officers, investigators and agents who need to establish identity when and where an encounter happens.
From Encounter to Identification
Capture
Capture the available biometrics and identity information.
Submit or Search
IBX prepares the information for the appropriate search or transaction, then sends it to an authorized database or searches locally.
Receive Results
IBX returns results to the device.
Capabilities
Biometrics Where You Need Them
IBX supports multiple forms of identity collection through a smartphone and connected biometric devices:
- Fingerprints using a smartphone camera or Integrated Biometrics scanners
- Face using the smartphone camera
- Iris using a connected iris sensor
- Palmprints using compatible IB scanners
- Biographic information from documents such as passports and driver's licenses
- Scars, marks and tattoos
- DNA sample tracking using barcode or QR-code capture
IBX automatically works with available peripherals, allowing agencies to configure the same software for different missions and field requirements.
Search Where the Information Lives
Depending on an agency's authorized access, IBX can work with:
- National and regional law enforcement AFIS/ABIS
- Border, defense and intelligence systems
- Jail and prison systems
- Local, on-device watchlists
- An on-device ABIS for field searches
IBX can also prepare collected information for submission to external federal, state, local or other authorized biometric systems.
