BioStation 3
Next-generation fingerprint and face recognition access terminal.
Overview
The BioStation 3 sets a new benchmark for biometric access control, integrating Suprema's latest deep-learning fingerprint algorithm with an advanced IR face recognition engine in a compact, modern design. With a 4.3-inch colour touchscreen and support for both on-premise (BioStar 2) and cloud (BioStar Air) management, the BioStation 3 adapts to any deployment model. Ideal for high-traffic entry points where speed and hygiene matter — the BioStation 3 authenticates users in under a second, with anti-spoofing technology that rejects printed photos and 3D masks.
