Overview
Identity registration is an essential process for establishing and managing individuals’ identity. Whether it's for a national ID, voter ID, driver’s license, or social welfare programs, registering identities accurately ensures people have access to essential services and rights.
In this article, we’ll explore the three main steps involved in identity registration and show you how the right biometric products—like biometric kits and tablets—can make the process smoother and more secure.
1. Identity registration and related products
Identity registration is the foundation of any digital identity system. It’s used by governments, banks, healthcare systems, and social programs to enroll individuals. The process includes gathering personal information and biometric templates to create and store a identity data.
The identity registration requires a set of specialized tools that can collect and store data. It is great that biometric products provide everything needed in one package. There are three products available:
Biometric Enrollment Kit
A biometric enrollment kit is the most common biometric product of identity registration because it contains everything required for its process. The kit includes a document scanner, 4-4-2 fingerprint scanner, HD camera, dual-iris scanner, signature pad, receipt printer, and a laptop. All of these components are organized well and stored in a rugged case for easy transport, making it perfect for mobile enrollment in challenging environments.
Biometric Tablet
A biometric registration tablet is an integrated solution that combines all the features of a biometric enrollment kit into a single, portable device. Weighing only 1.4kg, these tablets are light enough to carry anywhere, making them ideal for field officers who need to travel to remote areas for enrollment.
Biometric Tablet in an Enrollment Kit
For even greater flexibility, a biometric tablet within an enrollment kit combines the convenience of a portable tablet with the power of a full enrollment kit. This setup includes everything from document scanning to instant card printing, so ID cards can be printed immediately after the registration is complete.
2. 3 Easy Steps for Identity Enrollment
3 Steps of Identity Enrollment
Here’s how the identity enrollment process works:
Step 1: Filling Basic Information & Capturing Documents
This involves collecting the registrant’s personal details, such as name, address, and other important information. Documents, such as passports, ID cards, or proof of address, are scanned and stored for reference.
Step 2: Capturing & Storing Biometric Data
During this step, the individual’s biometric data is collected. This could include fingerprints, facial photos, and iris scans. This data is converted into biometric templates and stored in the database.
Step 3: Confirming Information with Signature & Receipt
The final step is to ensure all the data collected. The individual provides their signature, and a receipt is printed as proof of registration.
How a Biometric Enrollment Kit Works in the Identity Registration Process
Step 1: Fill in Basic Information and Scan Documents
First, the officer will use the laptop to input the registrant’s personal information into the system. Next, they will use the document scanner to scan any required documents, such as the applicant’s ID card, passport, or proof of residence.
Step 2: Capture Biometric Data
In the second step, the officer will capture the registrant’s biometric data:
l Facial image capture: The HD camera captures a clear facial image, typically required for ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards.
l Iris scanning: The dual-iris scanner ensures that the registrant’s eyes are scanned.
l Fingerprint scanning: The 4-4-2 fingerprint scanner captures high-quality fingerprints for later identity verification.
This data is then converted into biometric templates and stored securely in the database.
Step 3: Confirm Information and Print a Receipt
The final step involves confirming the data with the registrant’s signature. After confirmation, a receipt is printed as proof of the completed registration. This ensures that the individual has been successfully enrolled in the system.
