A year of integration, intelligence, and innovation

Issue 6 2025 Products & Solutions

In early November 2025, Suprema unveiled BioStar X, its next-generation unified security platform that merges biometric access control with AI-powered video intelligence. Released globally on 11 November 2025, BioStar X centralises access to events, alarms, live video, analytics, and interactive maps into a single enterprise interface. With AI detecting behaviours such as intrusion, tailgating and loitering, the platform delivers real-time situational awareness for large and distributed organisations that need high-scale, integrated security management.

Alongside this, Suprema continues to advance Suprema CLUe, its open, native-cloud integration platform. By allowing devices to connect directly via REST APIs – with no on-premises server – CLUe supports biometric, QR, mobile, and RFID credentials across multi-site and membership environments, making deployments simpler, more flexible, and cloud-ready. It enables integrators and operators to manage installations with greater speed, visibility and automation.

Suprema has also expanded its hardware ecosystem with the CoreStation 20  (CS-20) controller and DI-24 door interface module. Offering PoE+, encrypted communication, offline operation and support for up to 500 000 users, this new ACU family enhances scalability for both new and retrofit access control deployments.

Taken together, BioStar X, CLUe, and the CS-20 lineup demonstrate a clear shift: Suprema is moving beyond standalone devices and firmly toward an integrated ecosystem, where cloud, AI, controllers, and biometrics operate seamlessly as one unified security platform.
