" Your Trusted Partner for Rugged Biometric Solutions".

mobID is a Virginia based privately held company that designs, develops, and will manufacture fully integrated biometric devices from the ground up. The company is headquartered in Reston, Northern Virginia. mobID has contracted with a team of highly talented local engineers and manufacturing partners who are helping to develop the most advanced biometric hardware devices ever offered to the DoD/DHS for field deployment. The mobID devices will for the first time fully address the biometric, security and wireless needs of the frontline personnel with a secure US built device for either field enrollment or identification.

The mobID team has many years of experience in the biometric and computer industry spanning more than forty years. mobID was co-founded in 2002 by Mike Sim who for many years has spearheaded the use and adoption of handheld computers in the biometric world. Mike Sim and our senior software developer, Andrew Drabble, were pioneers in the late 90s for the use of 2D barcodes with embedded facial biometrics for healthcare and government security screening applications. This process was used successfully by UK Immigration Service in Terminal 4, London Heathrow Airport and at the Hong Kong "Home of the Future" in 2000/2001.

mobID offers its range of devices to be produced in either MIL-STD magnesium, high impact composite or rugged plastic with advanced multimodal biometric capability, tattoo recognition, speech recognition, voice translation, object recognition, barcode reading, smartcards, RFID, GPS, GPRS and video conferencing in a customer driven menu.
