2021.06.14MoriX to start a demonstration test at "Maxell Aqua Park Shinagawa"
MoriX
Co., Ltd.
(Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President: Morihiko Kubota, hereinafter
"MoriX") has started
a demonstration test of contactless IC cards with fingerprint authentication at
Maxell Aqua Park Shinagawa, an urban aquarium, for the management of staff
access.
Maxell Aqua Park Shinagawa (4-10-30 Takanawa,
Minato-ku, Tokyo, Shinagawa Prince Hotel) is an urban aquarium that exhibits
20,000 living creatures of about 350 species, located in the heart of the city,
about a two-minute walk from Shinagawa Station. The aquarium is dedicated to conveying the appeal of living
things through a variety of entertainment, including seasonal event programs.
MoriX believes that the use of contactless
IC cards with fingerprint authentication in this demonstration test will help
prevent unauthorized use by third parties and also help avoid the "Three Cs" to minimize human-to-human contact in response to
the spread of the new coronavirus.
●Message from Maxell Aqua Park Shinagawa
Based on the concept of "fusion of sound,
light, and images with living things," the museum has been creating new
entertainment and delivering it to the market in a variety of ways, including
exhibits and performances that allow visitors to enjoy the marine world in an experiential way, and AI illustrated
book applications to introduce the "charm of living things".
We agree with MoriX's goal of enriching people's
lives with new technology, and are pleased to participate in this demonstration
test.
While challenging ourselves in various ways, we
aim to grow as "the most advanced entertainment facility in Tokyo".
■ Outline of the demonstration test
・Test period (from June 14 to June 20)
・A special gate for IC cards
with fingerprint authentication has been installed at the entrance and exit
gates of Maxell Aqua Park Shinagawa to collect logs of staff entering and
exiting the facility.
Maxell
Aqua Park Shinagawa (http://www.aqua-park.jp/aqua/index.html)is one of the most popular urban aquariums in Japan.

■ Morix Product
Overview
MoriX provides fingerprint
authentication solutions for a wide range of applications, such as credit cards
and other financial cards, access control for offices and facilities, personal
authentication for PCs and other digital devices, membership cards and IC
tickets for music and entertainment events, etc., by utilizing its own
fingerprint authentication sensors and algorithms.
By placing a finger on the
fingerprint sensor on the IC card, the identity of the user is strictly
verified, and the fingerprint information cannot be tampered with after it is
registered. Since its data is encrypted and recorded in the card, there is no
exchange of fingerprint information on the server. Existing IC card readers can
be used by updating the authentication software, making it possible to
introduce a highly secure authentication system with low investment costs.
The card meets the
strict standards for financial cards in terms of authentication accuracy and
durability. The
authentication time required for settlement is less than one second, the False
Rejection Rate (FRR) is less than 3/100, and the False Acceptance Rate (FAR) is
less than 1/10,000. The system has already been certified by a major U.S.
credit card company for a next-generation credit card with fingerprint
authentication, and the company plans to start selling the product in Japan in
2021.
In addition, we are working with a major Japanese entertainment company to use the card as a membership card for fans and a digital ticket for events, which will lead to stricter identification as well as deterring unauthorized resale of tickets. Through these efforts, MoriX aims to sell several million cards, including payment cards, in Japan and overseas by the end of 2021.
