NEXT Biometrics, the world leader in advanced high-security fingerprint sensor technology, has received FBI certification for its NEXT Granite, FAP30 Sensor that was launched at the end of June 2025. This marks the 4th FBI-PIV certification for NEXT products.

The FBI has certified that this product meets specifications listed in Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Single Finger Capture Device Specifications of the FBI´s next generation Identification System Image Quality Specifications.

“Receiving the certification from FBI, is a strong acknowledgement of NEXT Granite, and it is also in practice used as a quality stamp for biometric products that meet the specifications. I am very proud of my team for their latest achievement, and they are continuing their hard work, reaching further certifications and standards.”  Says Marcus Laurén, CPO at NEXT Biometrics.

NEXT’s Active Thermal® technology uses both heat from the finger and 3D imaging to authenticate the user. This enables superior authentication speed and liveness detection to combat spoofing attacks, when compared with other fingerprint authentication technologies. The product also minimizes energy consumption and delivers exceptional performance in varying light and environmental conditions.

Over the last 25 years, NEXT Biometrics has shipped more than 10 million sensors. Its Active Thermal® technologies are certified by entities including Aadhaar, FBI-PIV, MOSIP Compliance and NIBSS, and have been implemented in countries including Bangladesh, China, Ghana, India, Malaysia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, U.S. and Vietnam.
