This document compares Telos’ ONYX touchless fingerprint technology with traditional touch-based sensors and facial recognition. ONYX uses AI-driven liveness detection, operates through a smartphone’s rear camera, and requires no physical contact. It offers high accuracy, permanence, and distinctiveness with minimal risk of spoofing. Unlike facial recognition, which can be inconsistent under varying conditions, ONYX delivers stable results even across large-scale databases. It eliminates hardware dependency, enhances hygiene, and ensures user consent. Overall, ONYX provides a more secure, low-risk, and scalable biometric solution for identity verification across mobile devices.
