Eyelock ID hands-on

2014-01-06
as this is Brian Bennett foreseen it and we are at CES 2014 we're taking a look at the I lock ID iris scanning security solution and it is basically scanning your iris so you don't have to use passwords to unlock your laptop and it's very interesting a little solution very convenient and we're gonna get a quick look at how it works so how does this actually happen here so I like ID uses iris based authentication technology created by eye lock and what we're doing is we're taking rapid motion video of your iris which is the colored part of your eye we're using our algorithms to locate the 480 points of each of your irises and then we are creating a very long template which is unique only to you and I've already enrolled and associated my identity with this computer so when I go to log in to this computer right now I will no longer need to enter a password it will simply look for a match of my template and if it finds me and authenticates me it should let me into the computer okay so you base is just like stare into the the scanners and so I'm just gonna look at the video camera which is right here in the bezel you'll see a state change on this LED light and it's gonna go dark blue means it found me as a live person and not a video or a photo of me and I do have access privileges so it's literally just unlock the computer without a username and password wow that was pretty fast so essentially this is a it's more than just a proof of concepts going to be hopefully coming to some partners by the end of this year maybe early next year in 2014 early 2015 but so far looks pretty interesting so there you have it folks I'm Brian Bennett at CNN and we just took a first look at the eye lock ID
