OmniPerception secures facial biometrics technology funding

The investment of more than GB pound 1M has been provided by Iris Capital, Pentech Ventures and Blue Star Capital, to help bring to market a number of cutting edge technology solutions.

These include CheckPoint.S, an innovative facial surveillance technology that the company claims is “capable of identifying a wanted individual in a matter of seconds”.

OmniPerception CEO Stewart Hefferman said: “This investment comes at an exciting time for OmniPerception when we are involved in a number of projects that we hope will change the face of the biometric arenas.

“It is also a welcome endorsement from our investors who have been very supportive in providing the finance to help us support our efforts to bring existing cutting edge technology to market.”

Alexander Wiedmer of Iris Capital said: “We are very excited to continue to back OmniPerception.

“We are confident that the company will continue to establish their presence in the biometrics market as the UK leading facial biometrics company, and their experienced and motivated team will continue to develop their products to fit the market needs.”
