Key Facts
- UR Codes are digitally signed 2D codes embedding identity attributes and a biometric template on physical cards or wearables.
- They support offline two-party face matching on a mobile device without a database lookup.
- Deployments cover Albany and Saratoga County sheriff credentialing and Project Lifesaver wristbands.
Card Text
Carrying a signed template on the credential itself removes the network dependency that limits biometric verification in field conditions. The same property narrows the privacy surface, since verification does not require querying a central store of enrolled faces.
