Global ID is a Swiss start-up specializing in biometric authentication using the vein network in the fingers of the hand, founded in 2016.

Description

Global ID was founded in Lausanne on July 12, 2016 by Lambert Sonna Momo. It is headquartered at the EPFL Innovation Park in Écublens.[1]

Global ID is a Swiss start-up, developing market-leading biometrics technology based on vein recognition, acquired using multiple views. It comprises several software components and a hardware scanner.[2]

For its scientific research, it relies on a consortium comprising the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), the Idiap research institute and the HES Valais. The scanner is assembled in the canton of Jura, while vein recognition techniques are developed with the Idiap research institute and encryption techniques with EPFL's LASEC laboratory. Global ID's current VenoScanner-F was miniaturized with the Centre suisse d'électronique et de microtechnique de Neuchâtel.[3]

Patents

The startup holds several patents worldwide, in the USA, Europe and Asia.[4][5]

In 2022, Global ID became the first start-up in the EPFL Innovation Park to receive the Swiss Triple Impact label from B corp.[6]

Fields of application

Sovereign security

The Swiss army and its equipment supplier RUAG are studying the integration of this technology into their equipment.[7]

Healthcare

The canton of Jura hospital has carried out the first multi-view vein biometric authentication tests at the Delémont facility in 2019.[8] A new VenoScanner for the whole hand and contactless stabilization is supported by the Swiss Confederation with a grant of 1 million Swiss francs, notably for high-volume authentication and post-covid applications.[9]

In 2024 global wins a major contract with the american company project hope to deploy an application in Namibia.[10]
