Leading biometric companies Aratek and Neurotechnology will unveil their advanced, field-ready biometric solutions at the Congreso Internacional de Tecnología Electoral (CITEC) 2024, held from September 17-19 at the Hotel Sheraton in Panama City. This event, jointly organized by IIDH/CAPEL and the Tribunal Electoral de Panamá, is a premier platform for showcasing technologies that enhance transparency, security, and efficiency in electoral processes across Central America.
At Stand 18, Aratek and Neurotechnology will demonstrate their state-of-the-art mobile biometric solutions, engineered to assist governments in securely registering and verifying every eligible voter, even in the most remote areas. These solutions are specifically designed for mobile deployment, allowing election officials to carry out voter registration and identity verification across diverse terrains, providing significant benefits for Central American countries where accessibility is often a challenge.
Aratek’s biometric devices, such as the Marshall 8 Plus biometric enrollment tablet, Marshall 5 biometric handheld terminal, and BM8600 biometric rugged tablet, are tailored for field operations, allowing election officials to conduct voter registration, identity verification, and ID document validation anywhere. These devices are equipped with FBI-certified fingerprint scanners, high-quality facial recognition, and smart card readers, making them essential tools for secure and efficient voter enrollment in both urban centers and rural regions. The integration of versatile ID document verification alongside biometric capabilities transforms these devices into comprehensive mobile ID solutions, ensuring that every voter’s identity is accurately verified through multiple layers of authentication.
Aratek’s Biometric Enrollment Kit further simplifies the process with its all-in-one, portable design, offering a practical solution for governments to register voters efficiently and securely, no matter how remote the location. These biometric mobile ID solutions ensure that no eligible voter is left unregistered, addressing the logistical challenges electoral bodies often face in Central American nations.
Sharing the booth at CITEC 2024, Neurotechnology, a global leader in biometric algorithms, will add depth to the presentation of biometric solutions. Known for its AI-driven fingerprint, facial recognition, and iris algorithms, Neurotechnology enhances Aratek's biometric hardware to ensure impeccable accuracy and reliability in high-stakes environments like elections. Together, the two companies will offer a glimpse into how biometric technology can fortify electoral processes, from secure voter registration to real-time identity verification during voting.
“We’re excited to partner with Neurotechnology at CITEC 2024 to demonstrate how our combined expertise in biometric and AI solutions can enhance election security and efficiency,” said Samuel Wu, VP of Aratek’s international business division.
The rise in demand for secure and transparent elections across Central America, especially in countries like Panama, has driven a shift toward adopting more advanced technologies for voter registration and identity management. As electoral commissions increasingly prioritize fraud prevention and accuracy, biometric technology has emerged as a crucial tool to maintain the integrity of electoral processes. Aratek’s solutions align with these trends, delivering the security, mobility, and scalability needed to meet the demands of modern elections.
Partnering with Neurotechnology, Aratek leverages AI-driven biometric algorithms to enhance the precision of its identity verification systems. This collaboration ensures that every registered voter’s identity is accurately verified and securely managed, bolstering public trust in the election process.
Visit Aratek and Neurotechnology at Stand 18 from September 17-19 to discover how their advanced biometric solutions can transform voter registration, enhance identity verification, and provide comprehensive support for secure and transparent elections across Central America.
