He said Iris ID technology, with its proven accuracy and ease-of-use, has been deployed by governments around the world for use in challenging environments such as national identity, voter registration, transportation and immigration. Iris ID technology is designed to be integrated with third party applications. UIDAI biometric services providers have used Iris ID products in multiple configurations. Earlier, Iris ID successfully implemented a program with an enrolled population of 60 million, which led the UIDAI to select iris technology as the main modality for issuing AADHAR cards.
