RealSense ID is an award-winning, NIST-verified compact on-device facial authentication solution, built on a legacy of innovation in vision technology and AI. Incubated at Intel and purpose-built for user privacy and protection, RealSense ID combines an active depth sensor with a specialized neural network to deliver secure, accurate facial authentication.
RealSense ID is deployed via OEMs/integrators across enterprise access control, workforce management, healthcare, transportation, stadiums, retail, and kiosks/ATMs, and is optimized for high-traffic edge environments. This includes Ones Technology’s BioAffix Gate Vision and BioAffix Mobile Gate Vision powered by RealSense ID F450—SIA NPS award winners (2024 Biometrics; 2025 Mobile Solutions). Other deployments include TabletKiosk, Farm Health Guardian, and select airports in Turkey and Israel. Separately, RealSense collaborates with NVIDIA on robotics initiatives and recently announced a strategic investment and partnership with dormakaba, a global leader in access solutions.
RealSense ID’s anti-spoofing, liveness detection and facial authentication software achieves a 1 in a million false acceptance rate and a true-positive rate of 99.87 percent, unlocking in a fraction of a second. Active-stereo depth plus neural models analyze texture, micro-motion, and reflectance to block photos, videos, and masks without no prompts. Engineered to operate entirely on-device, the product eliminates the need to transmit biometric data to external servers, enhancing privacy and data security.
The specialized neural network reliably supports every skin tone and shade and adapts to changes over time, accommodating different hairstyles, facial hair and more. It functions in conditions from complete darkness to bright sunlight, and its large vertical field of view means it can authenticate people from 120 cm to 190 cm tall at a 55 cm distance.
RealSense ID is currently undergoing ISO/IEC 30107-3 (Presentation Attack Detection) evaluation under iBeta Quality Assurance. It has achieved Google’s PAD Certification in Spain through IOActive. Its models, user database, and operational firmware are encrypted (AES-256) and digitally signed (ECDSA-256); only authenticated components run, and updates are verified before install. Matching runs on-device, keeping biometric data off external servers.
RealSense ID is priced per device, and comes with no cloud or per-transaction fees.
