Solution 1
Biometric registration
Capture a noseprint or face using a smartphone to create a unique biometric profile through client-side quality checks and server-side duplication validation. Identity is verified before service use to standardize onboarding and access control. Security principles such as data minimization and permission-based access are applied via API/SDK.
