What is OpenABIS?

OpenABIS is the first open-source Automated Biometric Identification System. It supports multi-modal biometrics such as fingerprints, iris, face, and biographic data and, for now, it is designed for the needs of small to medium-size projects.

OpenABIS is fully modular, allowing to integrate with existing solutions as well as different types of biometric extractors, and matchers.

Use cases

Though biometric identification can serve a very large variety of use cases, we are focusing our efforts on the humanitarian and development sectors.

Cash Transfer

Reduce fraud from partners and recipients to make sure the money arrives in the hand of the intended person.

Healthcare

OpenABIS helps make sure that doctors have the right patient in front of them, and access the correct medical records and pharmacists deliver medicines to the intended persons in order to reduce fraud.

Education

Programs such as School Feeding can benefit from using OpenABIS to better ensure the accuracy of the attendance reporting and make sure to reinforce good habits.

M&E

Data collection through mobile devices has greatly improved the reactivity and reporting capabilities of organizations. Using biometrics can help improve this further by helping to improve the data quality.

Multimodal biometrics

Three types of biometric recognition are currently implemented.

Fingerprint

Iris

Face
