"We have been completely blown away by the interest shown to our products," said Kim
Kristian Humborstad, CEO of Zwipe. "As this was our first proper showing at a trade show,
we were unsure what to expect. The reaction and feedback we have received far exceeded any
expectations we had."
Traffic in the booth was heavy; with the majority of interested people having either
already heard of the Zwipe product, or were told they must stop by and see it themselves.
"We were repeatedly being told that everyone was talking about our product," said Bob Fee,
Director of Sales for North America. "I have never before seen such a demand for a just
launched product."
"The level of interest confirms for us that the Zwipe biometric card is indeed
revolutionary," continued Humborstad. "Our product is disrupting the identity and access
control industry, creating new markets and revenue streams for OEMs, distributors and
integrators."
Because Zwipe's product has a fingerprint sensor on the card, the need to swap out
readers to upgrade to a biometric system is eliminated. Working with all iClass, Prox,
MIFARE Classic and DESFire EV1 readers, Zwipe enables the end-user to upgrade their
security to biometric without the cost and downtime associated with replacing readers,
while also maintaining the integrity of the users biometric information, which remains
only on the card.
About Zwipe:
Founded in 2009, Zwipe is a fast growing company in the center of a quickly evolving
industry. Zwipe has a strong portfolio of Patent Applications and is continually
developing more.
The Zwipe Evolution is a wirelessly powered card with which you authenticate yourself
not through something you know (pin code), but through something you are (your
fingerprint). The card is based on a NFC (Near Field Communication) platform with no
external database containing sensitive information, as the fingerprint data is only stored
inside the Zwipe card. To learn more about Zwipe, please visit http://www.zwipe.com, or
