Use case — Onboarding
NFC and Emirates ID chip onboarding
Read identity data straight from the chip instead of trusting an image.
The problem
Image-only capture can be defeated by high-quality print or screen replay. Chip data is signed by the issuing authority.
Modules used
NFC chip read
Document verification
Face match
Active liveness

What runs, in order
Each step is an independently configurable module with its own result on the decision object.
