Overview of the Topaz IDGem LCD 1×5
The Topaz IDGem LCD 1×5 is an advanced biometric electronic signature pad designed to capture both forensic-quality signatures and high-resolution fingerprint images. The integrated LCD screen displays “electronic ink” under the pen tip so users can see their signature in real time while signing documents.
What sets the IDGem series apart is its built-in optical fingerprint scanner, which enables organizations to add biometric authentication to digital workflows.
This combination of signature capture and fingerprint verification makes the device ideal for environments that require multi-factor identity validation.
Key Features
1. Integrated Optical Fingerprint Sensor
The IDGem LCD 1×5 includes a high-resolution optical fingerprint sensor capable of capturing detailed fingerprint images for biometric verification and authentication.
This allows organizations to verify a user’s identity by comparing the captured fingerprint with stored biometric templates.
2. Backlit LCD Display with Real-Time Signature
The device features a transflective backlit LCD display that shows signatures in real time as users sign on the pad.
This provides visual confirmation and improves accuracy during the signing process.
3. Rugged Tempered Glass Signing Surface
The signing area uses a durable tempered glass surface rated for up to 2 million signatures, making it suitable for high-traffic environments such as banks and service counters.
This durability ensures long-term reliability even under heavy daily usage.
4. High-Performance Electromagnetic Digitizer
The pad uses a high-performance electromagnetic digitizer with a battery-free stylus, providing accurate and responsive signature capture.
This technology allows the system to record biometric signature data such as:
-
Writing speed
-
Stroke direction
-
Pen pressure
These characteristics help produce forensic-quality signature data for authentication.
5. GemGuard® Antimicrobial Stylus
The stylus included with the device features GemGuard antimicrobial protection, helping reduce bacteria on the pen surface when used by multiple users.
This feature is particularly useful in public environments such as healthcare clinics or retail counters.
6. Signature Display on Pad and Computer
The captured signature is visible both on the signature pad and the connected computer screen, allowing users and operators to review signatures before completing the transaction.
