            Image Capture
                   The iris image is captured using a 
                   camera similar to that in a home video 
                   camcorder.  The iris is illuminated with 
                   low level IR illumination similar to that 
                   used in a wireless television remote 
                   control.

             Safety of Iris Biometrics
     •  The LG3000 has the following UL approved eye safety 
        certifications; IEC 60825-1, ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96.
     •  “The LED’s used are similar to those used in TV 
        remote controls, toys and other consumer products. 
        The energy emitted by the LED’s is not at all harmful 
        to the human eye even under all conceivable 
        conditions of normal use – and even misuse. The 
        energy entering the eye is far less than that received 
        when a person stands outside in sunlight or looks at 
        an incandescent lamp”. - Quote from Dr. Sliney’s eye safety report. 
     •  The LG3000 camera, the same type used in a    
        camcorder, only takes a picture of the iris (front of the 
        eye) and is completely non-invasive.
