The Lumidigm technology solves problems of traditional biometric identification at which reading accuracy decreases in case of adverse environmental conditions if skin is in bad condition, the surface of a finger is damaged or the print badly is defined. Unlike traditional methods, the multispectral technology of imagery uses repeated light ranges and the advanced technicians of polarization to take unique characteristics of fingerprints from the surface of a finger and a low layer of skin. This additional information allows multispectral shapers of images to distinguish authentically fingerprints and more effectively to define counterfeit prints.
On February 13, 2014 HID Global announced acquisition of Lumidigm company. This acquisition expands HID Global solution portfolio in the field of authentication and gives the chance of the company to release a set of new solutions of safe identification. The Imperial Capital company was only financial the consultant of Lumidigm when carrying out this transaction.
