The following TWIC Fixed Reader products are listed on the latest Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Initial Capability Evaluation (ICE) List dated July 28, 2011. The ICE List includes information on all readers & software that have demonstrated to the TSA and the U.S. Coast Guard successful completion of their testing evaluation.
TSA has evaluated ICE list readers for correctly reading and processing information obtained from the TWIC card in each of the reader modes defined in the TWIC Reader and Card Application Specification. TSA has not performed environmental testing as part of the ICE process.
The TSA and DHS seal shall not be used in any manner which implies TSA or DHS endorsement of commercial products or services, the user's policies or activities, or on any article that may discredit the seal or reflect unfavorably on TSA or DHS.
NOTE: The goal of the ICE List is to allow the introduction of as many types of readers & software that will meet the needs of maritime facility and vessel operators, while having a level of assurance that a supply of readers will accurately read a TWIC Card reading performance (technical read of the card). The results of the evaluation are based on a PASS / FAIL basis.
An entity purchasing a reader product represented on the ICE List is encouraged to work with their vendor to establish reasonable Terms and Conditions protecting said entity from any changes in technical requirements, unexpected integration issues, or environmental factors unique to a given location. A vendor may offer an upgrade path, no fee replacement, or other innovative options. |

| | Description | | |  | TechSphere VP-II X
While the VP-II X is a TWIC ICE Approved Fixed Reader, it is NOT a fingerprint reader. It is one of two approved "Alternate" or "Operational" biometric readers. By not being a fingerprint reader, it is able to bypass the problems that fingerprint readers face in an open industrial or maritime environment.
By utilizing individually unique Hand Vascular Patterns, 99.8% of the entire population is able to use the system accurately and with the verification speed of 0.4 seconds, it eliminates user bottlenecks. | | |  |  | Morphotrak MA120W

| | | |  | L-1 4G PIV TWIC Station Extreme
Rugged and built to operate in the most extreme outdoor conditions - designed for Ports, Military Bases and Airports. Confidently deploy a biometric device created for unmatched performance in the most undesirable conditions. The device has been designed from the ground up to meet PIV and TWIC requirements and utilizes our new innovative and powerful 4G platform. | | | |  | Toptech veriFID II
The veriFID matches the driver fingerprint to a template stored in TMS6 and allows the continuation of the loading process. If the person inserting the card is not the authorized driver, then the driver/card will be locked out. Additionally, TMS6 can raise alarms or page/e-mail appropriate personnel with this information. veriFID is easy to install and utilizes existing RCU wiring. | | | | | | Innometriks Rhino-XS-TWIC | | | |
