Hamburg – November 04, 2026 -- DERMALOG Identification Systems has completed qualification testing under the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Fast Capture (FastCAP) program, and NIST now lists the Hamburg-based company among vendors whose contactless fingerprint capture meets the requirements of NIST Special Publication 500-339.
NIST tests ten-finger capture without a touch-based scanner
FastCAP assesses whether contactless technologies can capture all ten fingerprints quickly and reliably without a conventional scanner. DERMALOG's listing confirms that its solution delivered biometric data of sufficient quality for secure identification under standardized testing conditions.
Mobile enrollment and civil registration are the target applications
DERMALOG names mobile identity verification, remote enrollment and civil registration as use cases. Citizens could be identified or enrolled without conventional fingerprint scanners, which the company says suits mobile and high-volume environments where rapid, hygienic capture is required.
CEO Günther Mull called the qualification "another major step toward the broader global adoption of contactless biometrics."
The source material discloses no commercial terms, deployment contracts, capture-speed results or accuracy metrics from the FastCAP testing.
