Albuquerque Operations 2420 Comanche, NE Suite D-2 Albuquerque, NM 87107 CAGE Code 29674 PICS User’s Manual 07 June 2004 2 1.0 SCOPE This document is intended to provide guidance to the end user of the Personal Identification Credential System (PICS) for normal operations. This revision covers the Production Prototype system only. It describes typical operation of the Personal Identification Credential (PIC), the PICS Enrollment Station, and the PICS Reader. It also covers the operation of the software items included with the system, including the enrollment software (PICS Manager), the PICS Reader Service (PICS Reader Service) and the status display (PICS Status). In general, the roles discussed within this document cover the PIC user, the PICS Enrollment Station operator, and the PICS maintainer. The PIC user need only be concerned with the operation of the PIC itself. The PICS Enrollment Station operator will need to be familiar with both the PIC operation and the PICS Enrollment Station operation. The PICS maintainer will need to be familiar with all three roles. 1.1 Glossary PIC Personal Identification Credential (handheld identification unit incorporating biometric sensor and RF link) PICS Personal Identification Credential System PICS Enrollment Station Enrollment subsystem that assigns a PIC to an individual and maintains the database PICS Reader Interrogation unit that communicates with the PIC and is interfaced with a local access control system Proof of Concept (POC) PICS Prototype PICS that closely resembles the production system PIC User(s) The PIC Users are the end users of the system. The PIC users will be assigned a PIC and be enrolled in the PICS. The PIC users will interact only with the PIC to which they have been assigned Enrollment Station Operator The Enrollment Station Operator uses the Enrollment Station on a regular basis to enroll and disenroll PIC users. PICS Maintainer The PICS Maintainer is responsible for system configuration operations and troubleshooting problems which may arise. This includes setting up/configuring the PICS Reader, setting up, configuring and maintaining the PICS Enrollment Station and its software, including the PICS Enrollment Station software and its associated database. The PICS Maintainer roll may be accomplished by more than one individual.

The PIC is a small, handheld, wireless biometric device small enough to fit in a shirt pocket. In the initial application, users will operate the PIC from within a vehicle in order to gain access to a facility. In addition to the PIC, the system will include a PICS Enrollment Station, which consists of a MS Windows based PC software application with an RF interface attached to a serial port. The Enrollment Station software will run under the MS Windows environment and provide enrollment capability and enrollment database maintenance. Lastly, the PICS Reader is used to control access of users to the system. The PICS Reader provides interrogation of PIC units and validation of PIC enrollment. The PIC is responsible for validating the fingerprint, but the Reader is responsible for insuring that a given PIC is to be allowed in the system. 3.1 PIC Operation The operation of the PIC is straightforward, but the nature of the biometric fingerprint sensor is such that the user will need to become well practiced in using it. The guidelines given here may not work for everyone. Some users may find that a different approach to using the sensor will yield better results. Unfortunately, the typical user will have little time to experiment with using the PIC before being permanently enrolled in it. Therefore, it is important that the PICS Enrollment Operator be well experienced in using the PIC and training new users. The act of sliding open the fingerprint sensor activates the electronics inside. The PIC automatically turns itself off after approximately 10 to 15 seconds. Upon activation, the PIC will immediately flash the LED amber to indicate that it is alive. Following a brief delay, the PIC will then flash the LED green and emit a short high pitch tone. This is an indication that the internal battery is good. If the user places a finger on the sensor immediately upon activating the PIC, the LED may go directly to a flashing amber LED without going green first. If the battery is getting low, the PIC will emit three short low pitch beeps and briefly flash the LED red. If the PIC emits a long, low pitch beep and flashes the LED red, this is an indication of an internal error and the user may need to be re-enrolled. If the battery gets too low, the PIC may not function at all, or it may function erratically. Any time the PIC indicates that the bat…

EG&G Proprietary Personal Identification Credential System (PICS) Theory of Operation February 13, 2003 Prepared by EG&G Technical Services, Inc. Albuquerque Operations 2420 Comanche NE, Suite D-2 Albuquerque, NM 87107 EG&G Proprietary Page 1 of 10 EG&G Proprietary 1.0 Glossary PIC - Personal Identification Credential – handheld identification unit incorporating biometric sensor and Radio Frequency (RF) link PICS - Personal Identification Credential System PICS Enrollment Station – Enrollment subsystem that assigns a PIC to an individual PICS Reader – Interrogation unit that communicates with the PIC and is interfaced with a local access control system 2.0 Background The PICS is a biometric-enabled access control system. The system provides positive user verification by incorporating a fingerprint sensor and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for access control. The Personal Identification Credential (PIC) handheld unit and system have been developed for this access control. The PIC is a device issued to authorized personnel and used for control of vehicular traffic in a fashion similar to electronic toll technology. 3.0 System Description The PICS consists of multiple handheld PICs, fixed location PICS Reader(s) and PICS Enrollment Station(s), as shown in Figure 3-1. Each PIC will be uniquely assigned to an individual. The PICS Enrollment Station, consisting of a fingerprint sensor, PIC loader, personal computer and enrollment software, will be used to capture the individual’s fingerprint(s). The Enrollment Station then will be used to download the individual’s unique data into his or her PIC and enter the individual into the system database. The PICS Reader, consisting of an RF module, antenna, and computer components with communication software, will be located at the secured gate of a base or at a secured door. The Reader will communicate with individual PICs one at a time when each is within antenna range. EG&G Proprietary Page 2 of 10 EG&G Proprietary Figure 3-1. PICS Components The PIC will be used to gain access to secure areas while being handheld by the individual in either a stationary position (on foot to enter through a secure door or gate) or while moving in a vehicle (at speeds up to 5 mph). The user, upon approaching a secure area checkpoint, will place his or her enrolled thumb or finger on the PIC fingerprint sensing element. This then will activate the PIC, which will begin the fingerprint verification process. The PIC incorporates visual and audio feedback to the user for the purpose of alerting the user of success or failure in the verification process. In the event of failure, the typical response of the user would be to reapply the fingertip to capture a better image. Once the PIC has verified the fingerprint and notified the user via built-in visual and audio cues, the PIC will begin checking for an interrogation message from the Reader. When the PIC receives the interrogation message, it will respond with a unique digital identification number (DIN) that the Reader will use to verify the PIC. The Reader then will look up the PIC in a locally stored database and send a verification confirmation message back to the PIC. The PIC then may notify the user that he or she is cleared to proceed. Optionally, the Reader will be able to interrogate the PIC for additional information, in order to increase the reliability of the verification. EG&G Proprietary Page 3 of 10 EG&G Proprietary Figure 3-2 depicts the PICS Reader integrated with the existing Smart Gate. A directional antenna mounted from the side of each vehicle path is directed such that vehicles approaching the interrogation field see very little RF energy from the Reader’s transmitter. The output power from the Reader’s transmitter also is reduced to provide just enough power to communicate with a PIC that is within the interrogation field. Figure 3-2. PICS Reader Physical Layout The typical scenario will be that a PICS user activates his or her PIC immediately before entering the PICS Reader RF field. After 1 to 2 seconds, the PIC notifies the user of the success or failure of the fingerprint verification. The user will need to re-verify in the event of a failure. The PICS Reader then begins communicating with the PIC and alerts the Smart Gate control system once the confirmation process has been completed. The entire process should take less than 1 second under normal circumstances. During the communication process, the PIC must identify itself, send a validation message, allow the Reader sufficient time to look up the PIC in the database, and then receive a confirmation message from the Reader. In order to minimize the time lost to communication, messages in this mode will be kept very short (most likely 20 to 50 bytes). Once the PIC is activated and verifies a fingerprint, there is only a period of approximately 5 seconds for the PIC to receive a query from the PICS Reader prior to the PIC timing out and turning off. During enrollment, the user activates the PIC by placing a finger on the sensor. The initial fingerprint reading will be rejected, but while processing, the PIC will receive a message to put it in enrollment mode. In this mode, the PIC will collect the fingerprint data and pass it on to the Enrollment Station.
