Get The Right Mobile Biometric Solution

7 tips from rugged hardware solution specialists!

Avoid these common mistakes!

For decades AMREL has been building rugged mobile biometric solutions for some of the most demanding customers in the world. We see a lot of problems caused by mobile biometric devices from other vendors. Save yourself time and money by avoiding the following errors:

Don’t let your
products own you!

This is the single biggest difficulty that our clients have with other mobile biometric solutions, i.e. they’re stuck with the software and hardware that they bought. In a constantly changing world, upgrades and alterations are inevitable. Too many purpose-built biometric units can’t be changed at all.

AMREL biometric solutions are built for your future as well as your current needs.

Not only are our platforms software agnostic, but also their hardware is designed for quick and easy modifications. For example, buy our BioSense™ or BIOPTIX™ biometric tablet now, and if two years from now you want to add a smart card or magnetic strip reader, it’s no problem. Upgrade from a FAP20 to a FAP45 fingerprint scanner? Consider it done. When you buy AMREL, you buy freedom, not commitment.

Off the shelf vs.
build your own.

Too many people assume that they can’t get want they need off-the-shelf. They waste time and money designing, building, and manufacturing products.

AMREL Commercial Off-the-Shelf products have numerous options.

For over 30 years, we have been customizing solutions many of which we have turned into standard products. Our mobile devices have options for Smart Card readers, Magnetic Strip readers, 2D barcode readers, and more. Furthermore, AMREL pioneered “Customizable COTS” by developing mobile biometric solutions that can be easily customized to your needs. SDK is provided for easy application development. Generally, the SDK is compatible with Microsoft Windows®, Android™, and Linux.

Don’t waste time
by reinventing
the wheel

You have a great idea and you want to get it to market now. Many developers build from the ground up, which is often unnecessary, expensive, and unmarketable. Institutional buyers, such as the Department of Defense, want proven platforms. Even though they like your proprietary hardware, modality, sensor, or peripheral, they are hesitant to purchase a lot of new untested units.

AMREL puts your brand new idea on proven units.

Our “Build-Your-Own-Module (BYOM)” program allows you to integrate your proprietary technology into a secure module that can be quickly attached to our platforms. Not only do you save development time and expense, but also you get the credibility of a platform that has been tested in the real world.

The MOQ/NRE trap

Many buyers demand changes in biometric mobile solutions based on end-user feedback. Developers find themselves paying expensive Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) costs as well as purchasing Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ) of hundreds or even thousands of units for every single change. This makes the reiterative development process impossible.

AMREL lets you buy just what you need.

We have been building customizable solutions for 30 years, so our platforms are designed for easy modifications. Buy one specialized unit or a thousand. No MOQ and low-to-no NRE makes your development process affordable and practical.

“My, what a big
footprint you have.”

Buyers want slim, lightweight, devices that last throughout the work day without breaking the bank. No matter how good your solution is, if it’s big, expensive, and an energy hog, no one will want it.

AMREL builds biometric solutions that minimize Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C).

For over thirty years AMREL has been supplying SWaP-C solutions for the Department of Defense. We know how to make solutions light, efficient, and affordable.

Rugged saves money!

Ruggedness saves money in terms of lost work time, replacement costs, and repair expenses. For law enforcement and military applications, reliable operation in extremely harsh environments is often a matter of life and death.

AMREL builds genuinely tough biometric solutions.

For over three decades, AMREL has been delivering rugged solutions to Law Enforcement and US military. Our solutions have withstood real-world testing and meet military standards of ruggedness.

Don’t forget about
Obsolescence and
End of Life support.

Many of our customers have discovered that a 50-cent part that is essential to the operation of their purpose-built device is no longer available. When buying or building their biometric solution, they ignored the importance of post-sales and product lifecycle support.

AMREL worries about COTS obsolescence and end-of-life so you don’t have to.

Many of our customers use our solutions for 5 to 7 years, in some cases over 10 years. They know they can count on us to offer support and parts long after the initial sale is done.
