BAR-Approved Biometric Palm Vein Scanner Kit Web Special

BAR's announcement to include biometric requirements including the palm vein scanner kit has created a lot of uncertainty among smog test and repair shops, as well as the new Vehicle Safety Systems Inspection (VSSI) program in California, which could come into effect in 2024. Reduce the stress of a product that doesn't work from other vendors, and eliminate the potential for being locked out of doing smog checks by purchasing an Emissions Depot BAR-Approved Biometric Palm Vein Scanner Kit, which is backed by the Emissions Depot guarantee and also backed by Emissions Depot Remote Support (EDRS) to help with any installation issues.

This device is required by BAR in 2023 for all Smog Check Inspection Stations in California.

This device will be required by an upcoming Vehicle Safety Systems Inspection Program (VSSI) as part of the system's setup.

This device is a California Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) approved biometric device for smog testing and for the upcoming Vehicle Safety System Inspection program; it is compatible with the BAR-OIS web-application system once they release the BAR-OIS biometric software update; it is guaranteed to work and comply with the California smog test biometric verification program. It will also be compatible with the BAR Safety Inspection System (BAR-SIS). 

The kit includes one (1) BAR-Approved Biometric palm vein scanner kit, and shops will need one for each BAR-OIS or BAR-SIS machine.

We will keep you updated as we receive more updates on the smog check biometric requirements; our understanding at the moment is that all smog check stations will need to install a biometric palm vein scanner for each BAR-OIS machine.

There is a 2-year manufacturer warranty, and a Limited Return Policy following the delivery of the product. Returns are accepted within 10 days of product delivery. After 10 days from product delivery, a 15% handling and restocking fee is applied to any returns. Shipping costs will be deducted from the refund.

The bundle includes the palm vein scanner, hand-guide, and USB cable.

Buying the palm vein scanner with Emissions Depot doesn't just mean you get the palm vein scanner, it means you get the Emissions Depot Guarantee, and Emissions Depot Remote Support (e.g. phone support, remote hardware support) you need from our support staff to make sure that you are able to do smog checks with the palm vein scanner.
