Handprint
Readers
Biometrics can offer the level of security within
itself. For example,
fingerprint scanners can be set to test the print of
a single finger or require all ten digits before
allowing access. Putting a lot of data in a user
profile, however, means that login takes longer. On the
other hand, the more complex a profile is, the harder it
is to replicate or fake.
This technology can be used at Military departments,
Research and Development Laboratories, Government
offices and many other places where you highest level of
security is needed.
All access
control systems from ASPS can handle practically any
type of screening device on the market today. ASPS
provides Fingerprint readers with built-in
proximity readers, Hand Geometry reader.
Hand geometry is a biometric that identifies
users by the shape of their hands. Hand geometry readers
measure a user's hand along many dimensions and compare
those measurements to measurements stored in a file.
Viable hand geometry devices have been manufactured
since the early 1980s, making hand geometry the
first biometric to find widespread computerized use. It
remains popular; common applications include access
control and time-and-attendance operations.
Since hand geometry is not thought to be as unique as
fingerprints or irises, fingerprinting and iris
recognition remain the preferred technology for
high-security applications. Hand geometry is very
reliable when combined with other forms of
identification, such as identification cards or
personal identification numbers. In large populations,
hand geometry is not suitable for so-called one-to-many
applications, in which a user is identified from his
biometric without any other identification.
