eGate

The fight against illegal immigration, high crime rate and terrorist threats demand a huge effort from immigration and police authorities in order to create a Secure Area within the geographical limits of the country.

Our eGate represents an important component of our Border Control Suite and forms the basis of a modern and advanced “state-of-the-art” automatic immigration & access control handling. It is utilizing our VeriDoc engine for high-end electronic Travel document verification combined with biometric matching and control list handling (textual and biometric) in a user friendly workflow. By combining its applicational advantages with the latest technologies of eGate hardware, Avalon´s eGate solution provides a highly secure automatic immigration eGate for Border Authorities around the world.
