Unique Properties
Dash combines a camera, processor, software, touchscreen, and led panels with a biometric profile database. Based on years of previous experience, it’s our best performing biometric camera yet. The led panel adjusts to changing light conditions, providing high-quality photos for matching, while meeting stringent US airport security. The large screen doubles as an info and advertising point. Dash allows comfortable biometric identification in a quick, accurate manner.
Dimensions & Packaging
The Intel 10th generation pc, bespoke led lighting circuit board, and 15.6 in touchscreen is housed within a custom enclosure, designed for maximum security for the biometric profiles. The Dash head enclosure is 350mm wide,550mm high, and 150mm deep.The pole kiosk mount with Dash has an overall size of 1850mm x 500mm x 500mm.

Production Technology
Dash is made from hundreds of components made in many ways. Camera, speakers, pc, screen and cables are purchased. There is a custom-led circuit board, optimized for diffuse illumination, and a laser-cut, formed sheet metal. Plastic parts were made with sls prints, as well as rtv urethane casting molds. The stand is made from powder coated steel tube and plates, cut and formed. Tamper resistant screws and fixings are purchased from factories. Overall the design is made to be onbrand while secure from unauthorized access.
Design Challenge
The most significant design challenge visually was adjusting to the long and thin camera/lens combination, chosen for high performance. The length made the depth of the Dash much thicker than more commonly seen flat screens. To minimize the visual size, deep rear chamfers and a sculpted central area on the back conceal the overall thickness. Additionally, a thin tapered support stand accentuates the delicate shape, helping to minimize the size. Inspiration was taken from Saarinen's tulip table and JFK airport terminal 5 architecture. The final product is the result of many design iterations and working prototypes.
Research
For aesthetic reasons and biometric identity performance, the team experimented with different design configurations, followed by review, and re-design. The lighting led pcb went through many iterations to best illuminate a subject in a natural way. These models were tested in a lab and in live public areas, such as the Fort Lauderdale Airport, to research performance in a space with changing lighting conditions.
Inspiration
Dash is the latest of CLEAR biometric innovations. Designed for facial identification only, this version fits CLEAR’s brand with rounded shapes and white color, while evolving the brand with a smaller, sleeker form. The new shapes bring in retro-futuristic airport styling cues, reminiscent of Saarinen.
Project Duration
The project started in New York, Laguna Beach, and Bristol (UK) in January 2019. The first prototypes were tested in Ft Lauderdale in April 2019, then again in May in Houston. The first production was created for Citi Field baseball stadium in New York in August 2019. Production has continued since then for events, sporting stadiums, hospitals, and airports across the US.
Operation Flow
The subject walks up to Dash and reads the onscreen instructions. Lights adjust for local conditions. Photos are taken and sent to software to check against a biometric profile database. With a match, subject is notified via onscreen cues, then they can make selections on touchscreen. DASH finishes by displaying info and instructions, like seat number. If there is no match, info is displayed on front and rear screens and attendant is notified.
