Anti-spoofing
It checks that you are alive.
A copied fingerprint or a printed face is the oldest attack on biometrics. These products are built to refuse them.

UBio-X LiveGuard
A fingerprint with a pulse
LiveGuard reads the blood-flow response at the fingertip with infrared and green-red light, and combines it with the fingerprint sensor’s own forgery detection. Union Biometrics describes it as the first fake-fingerprint detection based on a heartbeat signal.
- 01
Pattern
The sensor scans the ridge pattern of the finger.
- 02
Pulse
Infrared and green-red light measure the heartbeat signal.
- 03
Fusion
Fingerprint and pulse data are analysed together.
- 04
Result
The verdict is sent to the terminal and stored encrypted.
Rated Level 1 (the highest) in the KISA K-NBTC fake-fingerprint defence test, as reported by Union Biometrics.

Made for gates, yards and weather.
