The Iris Identity Verification System (hereinafter referred to as the Iris System) is developed with information technology as the support and integrated with biometric technology. Its intelligent analysis platform enables comprehensive business applications such as identity information collection and storage, 1:N identity verification, 1:1 identity authentication, blacklist control, and personnel trajectory marking. It also supports concurrent business requests and portal access from multiple users. The system can achieve information resource sharing in the existing police systems and integrate various comprehensive applications and coordination among multiple systems into integrated management through big data interaction. It aims to establish a complete biometric identity information database and a set of accurate, efficient, and secure identity recognition systems.
The project construction includes two parts: the server side of the iris identity verification system and the iris collection & recognition front - end.
(1) Server Side of the Iris Identity Verification System
An iris identity verification system service platform will be built in the data center computer room of the Airport Public Security Branch (which enables access to the public security network). It adopts a one - level database construction mode, with a designed capacity for 2 million people. The server side of the iris system provides services such as data entry, storage, duplicate checking for storage, iris comparison, comprehensive information association, and comprehensive information query for the collection & recognition front - end. In the future, it can be connected with the provincial iris identity verification system, police comprehensive system, and security inspection management platform of Hubei Provincial Public Security Department to establish a complete iris data collection, storage, and application resource system.
(2) Iris Collection & Recognition Front - end
Iris collection and recognition devices will be deployed at the manual counters of security inspection channels in the domestic departure area and airport police offices. At the initial stage, these devices are used for iris collection of domestic passengers. After accumulating a certain amount of data, they can be used for iris identity authentication of domestic passengers. In the future, they can also cover the iris collection and authentication of foreign passengers. A total of 62 sets of devices will be installed.
Based on iris technology, the non - contact iris recognition system provides customers with a complete, reliable, secure, and convenient non - contact iris system solution without affecting the original airport identity verification system and order.
The entire system operates on the public security private network. The integrated desktop iris collection client accesses via the public security wired network and interacts with the airport iris identity verification server. It will be connected after the provincial and ministerial criminal investigation iris systems are established in the future.
(1) Cloud - based Deployment
Supports virtualization and can be deployed on cloud hosts in the cloud computing center.
Supports clustered expansion, resource pool management, and unlimited capacity expansion.
Supports remote configuration and deployment for the collection & recognition front - end, enabling visualized platform management and batch loading/upgrading of software packages.
(2) Unified Cloud Management and Centralized Resource Control
Enables unified portal access for user system management.
Supports centralized resource control and provides multiple management mechanisms such as permission domain management, user management, device management, resource management, and report management.
Supports resource pool formation, load balancing, local backup, and remote disaster recovery.
(3) Openness, Flexibility, and Strong Network Adaptability
Provides open interfaces based on standard HTTP/Web Service specifications, allowing connection and integration with third - party systems.
(4) Powerful Data Analysis Engine
This project uses an iris coding and comparison engine with a domestically pioneered all - hard - core technical solution. The original domestic iris recognition algorithm PhaseIris is applied to self - developed chips and loaded onto the coding and comparison engine. This product has been verified by a large number of actual commercial cases and can be applied to iris image collection, image segmentation, iris coding, fast comparison, and signal control in various environments. It features fast matching speed, high accuracy, and strong stability.
(5) Intelligent Front - end Comparison Device
The device adopts a dual - screen design, allowing both passengers and security inspection staff to monitor the iris collection status via the screens. Triggered by ID card reading, the device automatically collects passengers' irises (with automatic zooming for iris capture). After completion, the collection or recognition results are displayed on the screens synchronously. There is no need for manual intervention or operation throughout the process.
During the application period, the system has maintained stable operation for a long time. Without affecting the efficiency of entry - exit and customs clearance, it has achieved efficient collection and storage management of large - scale data. The collected data serves as an important data resource for personnel identity management, entry - exit management, and social security management applications. At present, Hongshi Technology is assisting in the deployment of high - speed comparison systems to support the airport in conducting secure identity verification.
