How they describe their product/innovation: Our mobile app is finally putting an end to the frustration that comes with usernames, passwords, and PINS. This app leverages a user’s smartphone to acquire his or her biometrics, which conveniently and securely replaces log-in information for all their favorite websites.

The app acquires various biometrics, including facial, periocular, fingerprint, and iris. Additionally, the app utilizes a unique, state-of-the-art “liveness” detection system that is capable of distinguishing a real person from an image or video in order to authenticate your identity and log you into sites, from social media to your online banking account and beyond.
