BioLink Solutions delivered its state-of-the-art biometric technologies for the State of Hawaii’s Driver License Program. The upgrade of the driver license system reinforces the ‘one driver – one license’ principle, designed to increase driver license security.
Incorporating biometrics into driver licenses was mandated in the “Minimum Standards for Driver’s Licenses and Identification Cards Acceptable by Federal Agencies for Official Purposes” issued by the Department of Homeland Security. A biometrically-enhanced driver license system aids in addressing the following key problems:
1) Issuance of multiple licenses to a single driver;
2) Issuance of a single license to multiple drivers;
3) Detection of counterfeited driver licenses.
The Hawaii driver license system based on BioLink AMIS integrates both fingerprint matching and facial recognition technologies into the card issuance process, increasing the already stringent security measures currently in place.
