The Sonda RTI (Real Time Identification) system designed for rapid confirmation or identification of a person by fingerprint matching in multi-million databases. Sonda RTI can be incorporated into Sonda AFIS-8E, designed for Informational and Criminal Expertise Centers of the MIA.

Types of verification:

• 1:1 - comparison of the scanned fingerprint of a person with the template on his ID-card or other identity document.
• 1:N - fingerprint matching in the external server database using a wireless connection.
• 1:N - fingerprint matching in the local database of mobile identificator.

In Ukraine the system works as part of the project of issuing biometric passports for exclusion of possibility of getting a second paper by one person.

In Crimea the system performs the quick authentication of detained citizens over the database of persons involved in crimes and wanted criminals.

On testing the system in Guinea the identification time on database of 6 million people ranged within 0.5 - 2 seconds, depending on the mode selected.
