The app helps capture biometric fingerprints, facial recognition, and scan documents needed for processing a person’s ID card using smartphones.
The authority said that the digital dividends of such technology innovation will yield positive results in contactless banking, financial inclusion, ease of doing business, and e-governance initiatives by offering remote identification and e-KYC.
