LG's IrisAccess 3000, a system entirely developed by LG Electronics, was introduced in the fall of 2001. It's a multi-component system that includes:
Usually found in an HR or security control location, the EOU3000 (connected to a server/database) is placed on a desk or table and used in a supervised enrollment environment; the enrollment subject is in a seated position. It contains all the elements necessary to initiate the enrollment process, illuminate the iris and acquire an iris image. In addition, it provides voice prompts and messages and as well as visual cues that indicate when the enrollment process has been completed.
The ROU3000 is installed adjacent to a door where access control is desired. The unit is composed of two + -parts - the optical imager with the front and rear enclosure. After the rear enclosure is mounted to, or recessed within the wall adjacent to the controlled portal, the optical imager with the front enclosure is mounted within the rear enclosure to provide a double layer of security. ROU3000 contains the elements for iris image acquisition, and provides audio and visual cues that indicate whether or not the user is authenticated. Mounted at the recommended height of 57" from the floor, the ROU comfortably accommodates a wide range of short or tall users.
The ICU3000 is always installed on the wall inside the protected or controlled area. Unlike many other biometric devices including some other iris recognition cameras, no biometric templates are stored on the optical unit. Iris images input via the ROU3000 reach the securely located ICU3000 which creates 512-byte templates from ROU input to compare these with stored values. If a match is found, the unit generates a signal to directly open a door, or provides Weigand output to signal a panel that then controls access. An ICU 3000 with one Frame Grabber Board (FGB) and one Door Interface Board (DIB) controls two doors. Inserting another FGB and DIB increases the number of ROUs/doors an ICU3000 can control to four.
The Frame Grabber Board captures analog black and white iris images. It converts the analog iris image into the digitized format to process in the Server, ServerPC or ICU3000.
The Door Interface Board checks and controls the releasing and the locking of a portal associated with a particular ROU. The Door Interface Board also provides the interface between ROU3000 and the Mother Board in an ICU3000. Used standalone, the DIB can activate a portal. The Door Interface Board also provides standard Wiegand or RS422 output for use with a panel or reader environment.
System enrollment, monitoring and management can be handled in a variety of ways. These roles can be performed by one PC or PCs working in concert. In an enterprise system, all these functions can be assumed by a larger host unit.
