Advanced Optical Systems (AOS) is a veteran-owned company based in Huntsville, Alabama, that has specialized in smart imaging systems since its incorporation in 1988. The firm develops technologies used for detection and recognition tasks, including applications such as missile seekers, robotic systems for cargo transport, and space docking sensors for orbital missions. In recent years, AOS has positioned itself in zero-contact fingerprinting, developing ANDI OTG, a rapid, hygienic enrollment and verification solution that operates at speed and with high interoperability, and which has earned industry recognition for its innovation. ANDI OTG is manufactured and assembled in the southeastern United States and was the first non-contact fingerprint technology to receive PIV certification from the FBI. The company's products target high-security environments and credentialing needs, including border control, airport security, event access, and checkpoint authorization, where rapid, contact-free identity verification is valued.
