DERMALOGs “Face Matching” is the fastest software for biometric Face Matching on the market. The speed is at 100 million matches per second on a single blade. Accompanied by a low failure rate the confirmed working speed is ahead of the competition.

DERMALOGs Face Matching enables to match face pictures against each other or against large databases. The recognition of facial characteristics forms the basis to identify individuals.DERMALOGs Face Matching enables to match face pictures against each other or against large databases.

Future of security: Biometric Face Matching software

DERMALOG already holds the world record in “Fingerprint Matching”. Nevertheless, the Hamburg-based market leader has more to offer than the development of the fastest software for Fingerprint Matching. Meanwhile DERMALOG offers hard- and software solutions for multi-biometric applications. In addition to fingerprints, the developers focus is on recognisable characteristics of the human iris as well as the face.

DERMALOG founder and managing director Günther Mull explains his biometric innovation: “The “Face Matching” enables to match face pictures against each other or against large databases. With our software, it is possible to match a group with the size of the Chinese population, around 1.4 billion people, within 14 seconds to find the most likely match.”


Face Matching systems can be used for many applications. Günther Mull: “To improve security at Border Control, all types of monitoring systems, criminal investigation, unlocking smartphones and generally for portable use all over the world.”


Günther Mull is convinced of the practicality of his “Face Matching”: “Our product can be integrated into existing solutions, is contactless, easy to use and is compatible with many image formats. This shows a part of DERMALOGs spectrum as multi-biometrics-supplier and system integrator.” An additional module serves to defend against manipulations and attempts of forgery by the use of photographs, masks or videos.
