So that is 1107 * 1.5 seconds worth of scanning or 27.675 minutes. But this doesn't allow for any time between each pupils or for kids moving, wearing a hat or anything else buggering up the scan. So I reckon it takes about hour to do all 1107 pupils. Even assuming two or more scanners, five minutes before school starts there is going to be a huge queue.
Looking at the company's website they have a video of it in operation. They claim 900 people in 19 minutes but do seem to be using 2 - 4 scanners.
Bizarrely the technology uses ID cards. The victim holds up the ID card in front of one sensor and stares into another.
I wonder what the failure rate is?
How many people it falsely identifies and how many people it rejects incorrectly?
