IriCore is the next generation of IriTech’s IrisSDK, delivering dramatically improved accuracy and matching speed through a new, compact template format optimized for network transmission and smart‑card storage. It incorporates industry‑leading iris‑recognition algorithms rigorously tested in NIST’s ICE and IREX evaluations and supports modern ISO image formats. IriCore runs seamlessly and reads and writes common industrial image formats such as BMP, JPG, JP2, and PNG. An optional module enables it to detect and adapt to images from either IriTech cameras or third‑party devices, while built‑in compression and decompression capabilities handle both lossy (JPG, JP2) and lossless (PNG) formats. Fully compliant with ISO 19794-6 and pre‑qualified for upcoming standards, including rectilinear, cropped, and ROI‑masked formats, it offers a robust, future‑proof SDK for end‑to‑end iris capture and matching solutions.
