After the pandemic, most people across the globe try to reduce social contacts and do not touch monitors and buttons. Of course, these actions are prudent enough to avoid infection. However, we have to touch something for our life. For example, we touch a biometric to register our time and attendance in the companies.

In this sense, the companies should solve an ambivalent problem: To record fingerprints and to reduce contacts at the same time. Therefore, IDEMIA’s products make sense to solve the problem.
