The compact touchscreen device guarantees secure mobile data operation using biometrics (fingerprint and facial recognition) and cryptographic security functions.

The MorphoTablet™ has a fingerprint reader – FBI-certified to comply with the PIV IQS (Personal Identity Verification-Image Quality Specifications) standard – and a high-resolution camera to capture and check biometric data. Its tamper-proof hardware and integrated encryption functions provide enhanced security to protect sensitive data and associated transactions.

Light and compact with a 7in touchscreen, the terminal is ideally suited to all types of operations in the field.

Combining biometrics with integrated card readers – contact and contactless, including NFC (near field communication) – the tablet can be used to verify people’s identities in a wide variety of situations and environments, such as on-the-spot ID checks.

The Android-based tablet supports wi-fi, Bluetooth and cellular networks.
