Sine, Honeywell’s visitor and contractor management platform, has launched an “Advanced ID Check” feature for its SinePoint Pro iPad kiosks, aiming to automate identity verification during building check-in.
According to the company, the feature scans a government-issued ID such as a passport, driver’s licence or national identity card, checks for authenticity indicators, confirms the document is not expired, and performs a face match between the document photo and a captured image of the visitor. The verification result is attached to the visitor pass and activity feed to create a timestamped record across sites.
Chuck O’Leary, General Manager, Sine by Honeywell, said the capability is intended for organisations with compliance requirements that need stronger assurance about who is on site. “Organisations with serious compliance obligations can’t afford gaps between who they think is on site and who actually is. Advanced ID Check helps close that gap automatically, at the moment it matters – giving teams the audit trail they need without slowing anyone down,” O’Leary said.
Sine said the tool can be configured by visitor type, allowing organisations to apply stricter verification to contractors or other higher-risk categories, and to flag discrepancies or hold check-ins for manual approval. The company said its data model stores “only essential fields,” and does not retain document images, document numbers, or dates of birth.
The identity verification capability is powered by Regula Forensics, which Sine described as being used by organisations across 250 countries and territories, including border control authorities in certain countries.
Advanced ID Check is available now as an optional add-on across all plan tiers for an additional fee, and requires a SinePoint Pro iPad kiosk.
