Computer Vision (iBeta Level 3) • CV-10
SDK / API Integration
Put biometric capability inside the applications people already use.
Scope
What the engagement covers.
Standalone biometric portals fragment the user journey. SDK and API integration embeds capture, liveness and matching directly into existing mobile, web and desktop applications.
Included capabilities
- Mobile SDK for iOS and Android with on-device capture and quality gating
- Web SDK for browser-based capture without plugin installation
- Server-side API for matching, enrolment and gallery management
- Offline and low-bandwidth operation for field conditions
- Reference implementations and integration support for client teams
Outputs and deliverables
- Integration specification and reference implementation
- Device matrix test results
- API and SDK documentation for client developers
- Version and deprecation management plan
Workflow
How it is delivered, step by step.
Each step has an owner, an entry condition and an artefact that has to exist before the next step begins.
01ScopeTarget applications, platforms, offline needs and user journeys.
02IntegrateSDK or API embedding with the client development team.
03TestDevice matrix testing across the real user hardware population.
04ReleasePhased release with fallback to existing verification.
05SupportVersion management, deprecation policy and developer support.
Use cases
Where this is typically applied.
Field applications operating without reliable connectivity
Software vendors adding biometrics to their own product
Delivery model
The operating pattern for Computer Vision (iBeta Level 3).
The same delivery discipline applies across every capability in this line, so combined engagements stay coherent.
Define
Use case, lawful basis, accuracy targets and acceptance thresholds.
Prove
Bench test on representative data, including attack and edge-case sets.
Integrate
SDK or API embedding, gallery design and decision policy.
Deploy
Edge or on-premise rollout, tuning and human adjudication workflow.
Assure
Accuracy monitoring, bias review, revalidation and retention enforcement.
Integration
- Core banking, onboarding and case management platforms via SDK or API.
- Physical access controllers, turnstiles and video management systems.
- Identity registries and watchlists under a controlled matching policy.
- SIEM and audit platforms for decision evidence and administrative logs.
Engagement approach
Every deployment is scoped with a documented lawful basis, retention schedule and human adjudication path before a single template is enrolled. Accuracy and bias are measured on the client’s own population, not on vendor benchmarks.
