Licensing VeriEye Embedded SDK

For VeriEye 2.6 SDK, please see Licensing VeriEye SDK.

The following licensing model is intended for end-user product developers. Integrators who want to develop and sell a VeriEye Embedded based development tool (with API, programming possibilities, programming samples, etc.), must obtain permission from Neurotechnology and sign a special VAR agreement. For more information please contact us.

Product Development

An integrator should obtain a VeriEye Embedded 1.1 SDK (EUR 589) to develop a product based on VeriEye Embedded technology. The SDK needs to be purchased just once and may be used by all the developers within the integrator's company.

VeriEye Embedded 1.1 SDK include a number of components; each particular component has specific functionality. A license for an individual VeriEye Embedded 1.1 component is required for each CPU that runs the component (a processor can have any number of cores).

These components are included with VeriEye Embedded 1.1 SDK:

• 1 single computer license for Embedded Iris Matcher
• 1 single computer license for Embedded Iris Client ⁽¹⁾
• 1 single computer license for Embedded Iris Extractor

Notes:
(1) Embedded Iris Client component includes Embedded Iris Extractor and Embedded Iris BSS components, which can be also purchased separately by VeriEye Embedded SDK customers.

Components are copy-protected – a license is required for a component to run. License activation options are listed below on this page.

Additional component licenses may be obtained by VeriEye Embedded SDK customers as required by their development process.

Product Deployment

To deploy a product developed with VeriEye Embedded 1.0 / 1.1 SDK, an integrator need obtain only the additional licenses required for the particular VeriEye Embedded 1.1 components that will run on each CPU of their customer's devices or computers. The available VeriEye Embedded components and license types for product deployment are the same as for product development.

Each VeriEye Embedded 1.1 component running on a device or computer belonging to the integrator's customer requires a license. License activation options are listed below on this page.

Prices for VeriEye Embedded 1.1 SDK and additional VeriEye Embedded component licenses can be found here.

Please refer to the License Agreement for all licensing terms and conditions.

Single computer licenses

A single computer license allows the installation and running of a VeriEye Embedded component installation on one CPU (a processor can have any number of cores).

Each single computer license requires activation for a VeriEye Embedded component to run. The available activation options are listed below on this page.

Additional single computer licenses for VeriEye Embedded components may be obtained at any time by VeriEye Embedded SDK customers.

License activation options

Single computer licenses for VeriEye Embedded components are supplied in two ways:

• Internet activation. A special license file is stored on a device or computer; the license file allows to run particular VeriEye Embedded components on that device or computer after checking the license over the Internet. Internet connection should be available for a short period of time at least once in 7 days. A single computer license can be transferred to another device or computer by moving the license file there and waiting until the previous activation expires.
• Serial numbers are used to activate licenses for particular VeriEye Embedded components. The activation is done via the Internet or by email. After activation the network connection is not required for single computer license usage.
  Note: activation by serial number is not suitable for virtual environments.
• Licenses may be stored in a volume license manager dongle. License activation using volume license manager may be performed without connection to the Internet.

Volume license manager

Volume license manager is used on site by integrators or end users to manage single computer licenses for VeriEye Embedded components via a LAN or the Internet. It consists of license management software and a dongle, used to store the purchased licenses.

The license manager allows the management of installation licenses for VeriEye Embedded components across multiple devices or computers in the network. The number of managed licenses is limited by the number of licenses in the license manager. Once issued, the license is assigned to a specific device or computer on the network.

The volume license manager requires a PC with Microsoft Windows, Linux or Mac OS X to run the license management software; the dongle would be connected to the PC.

Additional VeriEye Embedded component licenses for the license manager may be purchased at any time. Neurotechnology will generate an update code and send it to you. Simply enter the code into the license manager to add the purchased licenses.

VeriEye Embedded 1.1 enterprise license

The VeriEye Embedded 1.1 enterprise license allows an unlimited use of VeriEye Embedded components in end-user products for a specific territory, market segment or project. Specific restrictions would be included in the licensing agreement.

The enterprise license price depends on the application size and the number of potential users of the application within the designated territory, market segment or project.
