WORLD PREMIERE: DRIVER IDENTIFICATION DISPLAY FROM CONTINENTAL AND TRINAMIX PROTECTS AGAINST CAR THEFT
TrinamiX, and Continental are presenting a world innovation: the Driver Identification Display with an integrated camera solution for biometric driver identification.
A function that many users are already familiar with from face recognition on their smartphones is now finding its way into vehicles. Continental and trinamiX, a leading provider of biometric solutions, are taking the interaction between driver and vehicle to a new level. The technology reliably protects against car theft since the vehicle can only be started after successful authentication of the person in the driver's seat. It increases convenience in the automotive sector in many cases, such as digital payment processes via the car display when refueling, parking or paying tolls, as well as car rental. In addition, the technology can be used for payments in app stores or for access to digital services. The camera built into the system is used to reliably monitor the driver's attention in order to prevent hazards such as fatigue at the wheel. For this to happen, the new Driver Identification Display from Continental and trinamiX does not require any additional sensors. The camera is seamlessly integrated into the display, making it invisible to the driver.
Protects against fraud
The integrated facial authentication is based on a technology developed and patented by trinamiX. It combines facial recognition to verify the identity of the user with a new type of liveness detection: By recognizing human skin, the system prevents spoofing, for example through photographs or realistic three-dimensional masks of the legitimate driver. trinamiX Face Authentication has been certified according to the highest biometric security standards.
