- enhanced border security through portable biometric based checks
- secure person verification through real-time multi-source cross-referencing
- flexible, fast and cost-effective deployment of ad-hoc Border Check Points
- secure, private and traceable sensitive / personal data exchange based on blockchain technology
- increased safety and improved experience for border-personnel based on advanced Human Machine Interfaces and enhanced situational awareness via Augmented Reality
