Essential Features of Portable Biometric Scanner Device

Think about a device that you can carry anywhere, so compact that you can keep it in your pocket, and through that portable device you can collect the most accurate data from any remote location. From voter registration to suspect identification, from large data collection to small data collection, from a remote area to urban places, the mobile biometric scanner is the most sought-after device for these type of projects. Finding the most suitable portable biometric scanner can be a difficult task if you don’t know about the most useful features. To make your life easier, here we have put together five of the essential elements you must consider when buying such a device for your project.
Powerful Battery
In the field level identity project, you will hardly get any chance to recharge your portable biometric device. Besides if your device stop working in the middle of the work think about the nightmare you have to go through. To avoid this hassle, you must look for a device that has a long battery life.
Liveness Detection Technology
Live detection technology is the new addition in the biometrics. This state of the art technology will keep your project free from spoofing. While considering a biometric scanner device, you must consider tools that have live detection technology.
Fast & Accurate Scanning
In any field level biometric identification/registration project, one of the most challenging factors is the need to ensure that biometric data gets processed with speed and accuracy. So you must buy a device that can capture, communicate and deliver faster results.
Multimodal Support
Your project can be different by its nature. Your plan may require different modalities for different project need. For instance, due to social stigma, some may deny giving their fingerprint, in that case, their iris could be the solution. In short multimodal will work as your backup plan and help you to operate continuously.  So it will be a smart idea to buy a device that supports multiple modalities.
Connectivity
An interruption in work can be annoying. Lack of proper resources can bring unwanted intrusion to your work. Such as connection loss, low connectivity, etc. To run your identity project smoothly, you should consider devices those have faster connectivity in data transfer support all types of data connectivity that includes 4G, 3G, 2G, and WIFI.
Recommended Portable Biometric Biometric Scanners
The MULTICHECK-C™ and RapidCheck™ comes with all of these essential features to support your biometric project. They can accurately process biometric data for enrollment or matching, and their rugged builds and industrial design make them usable in any condition or environment.
The success of your field level biometric project solely depends on your portable biometric device. A suitable device can give you error-free data, and the bad one can give you only nightmares. So, before buying it is always wise to check all these essential features to avoid those unwanted nightmares.

Iris Recognition vs. Retina Scanning – What are the Differences?

In biometrics, iris and retinal scanning are known as “ocular-based” identification technologies, meaning they rely on unique physiological characteristics of the eye to identify an individual. Even though they both share part of the eye for identification purposes, these biometric modalities are quite different in how they work. Let’s take a closer look at both and then explain the similarities and differences in detail: Retinal Scanning:  The human retina is a thin tissue composed of neural cells that are located in the posterior portion of the eye. Because of the complex structure of the capillaries that supply the retina with blood, each person’s retina is unique. The network of blood vessels in the retina is so complex that even identical twins do not share a similar pattern. Although retinal patterns may be altered in cases of diabetes, glaucoma or retinal degenerative disorders, the retina typically remains unchanged from birth until death. (Source: Wikipedia) ...

Finger Vein Biometrics Identification for Membership Management Software

An article published today in the University of Vermont’s campus newspaper The Vermont Cynic reported that the campus recreation center has adopted M2SYS finger vein technology for student member identification. Tim Lewis, associate director for campus recreation made the decision to use finger vein biometrics for member identification after brainstorming ideas on how to eliminate students carrying ID cards. Happy to see our finger vein biometric identification system used at the University of Vermont through a partnership we have with Vermont Systems, a recreation and parks software provider based in Essex Junction, VT. Modern-day membership management software is designed to help create efficiencies that antiquated methods simply can’t provide. In an effort to eliminate ID cards, prevent identity fraud, and create a more convenient user experience, many membership management facilities are evaluating vascular biometrics (finger vein) for identification because of the distinct ...

Misinformation about Biometric Technology Continues to Fuel Functionality Misconceptions

Today, we came across the following blog post from Guy Huntington at Infosec Island: “What Happened to My Biometric?” In the post, the author discusses the inherent dangers of opting into a biometric identification system by providing your fingerprint and the possible negative privacy and identity theft consequences if a user does not make sure that their biometric template is deleted from the system if they leave or opt-out. Our take:  While we are always pleased to see biometric technology pop up in the news or through blog postings, we often cringe when we see these types of articles that essentially do not accurately depict biometric technology, and leave readers with ill-conceived perceptions about how the technology actually works. Anyone who works in the biometric industry can attest to the fact that there is never an image of a user’s fingerprint stored. The truth of the matter is that biometric enrollment templates stored on a server are not actually an image of t...
