Brazil votes on biometrics
08 September 2009

Brazil’s Superior Electoral Court (TSE) has selected Suprema’s RealScan-D live scanner for nationwide biometric voter registration.

The RealScan-D live scanner is a portable, USB-powered device designed for bundling with mobile jump-kits when used at voter registration and voting sites.

Suprema says TSE’s voter biometric identification programme aims to protect citizen’s voting rights by preventing any possible frauds.
