Blink Identity, a company founded in 2018, is making significant strides in the United States with its groundbreaking approach to facial recognition technology. The company's slogan, "Facial recognition at walking speed - for concerts, sporting events, and more. Privacy first, always," encapsulates its mission to revolutionize access control.
Utilizing advanced algorithms, Blink Identity is capable of identifying over 60 people per minute under varying lighting conditions, enhancing guest experiences and ensuring secure access at live events. Their commitment to privacy sets them apart in an industry where commercial biometrics are scarce due to existing systems' complexities and inefficiencies.
The team behind Blink Identity brings over a decade of experience constructing large-scale biometric systems for the Department of Defense. The company's last funding round, a $1.50M Seed Round on 09 July 2018, attracted reputable investors such as Techstars, Sinai Capital Partners, Live Nation Entertainment, and Avex USA, underscoring investor confidence in its potential.
