HAMILTON, NJ, August 22, 2018 - Princeton Identity, provider of the fastest, simplest and most secure biometric security system on the market, today announced three new patents related to innovations in iris recognition technology that the company was awarded by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
