How to scan biometrics
Make sure the face is clean.
- If sand, dirt, or other debris is on the face, wipe it off
- If the nose is wet, blow it dry
- If the nose is covered in fur, brush it out
Scan front of your dog’s face.
- Make sure the dog’s face is facing the camera to capture the nose print from the front
Make sure to scan in a bright light.
- A daytime outdoor setting or a room with plenty of light is preferred
- Avoid direct sunlight or strong lighting such as pin lights
Slowly move back and forth at a set distance.
- Keep the distance between the dog’s nose and the phone between 10-20cm (4-8 inches), moving slowly back and forth
Tilt your phone as your dog’s face moves.
- Orient your phone vertically if your dog is sitting upright, and horizontally if they’re lying down
