Application of Iris Biometric Authentication in Different Sectors


Iris biometric authentication is the most accurate and precise authentication system, and that’s why its application has been observed in the most sensitive sectors where security concern is high. The system captures a picture of a person’s eye, and the iris in the image is then implied for the further division and standardization for separating its characteristics. The matching of iris recognition authentication depends on the procedure of division. The division is utilized for the restriction of the right iris area in the specific segment of an eye and it ought to be done precisely and accurately to expel the eyelids, eyelashes, and reflections of iris area.

Application of Iris Biometric Authentication

As the pattern of irises are complex and almost impossible to spoof it has been using in the most sensitive sectors for proper identification of an individual. The application of iris biometric authentication already implemented in the below verticals:

National ID

Every nation including developing countries provides National ID to its citizen. Along with fingerprint the iris recognition also initialized for the most accurate identification of the citizen. It helps to prevent duplicate registration, ensures quick and precise voting identification, provides an easily accessible audit trail and facilitates interoperability between government agencies for data integration, verification, and maintenance.

Law Enforcement

Biometric authentication has been using in law enforcement agencies since 1891, and various essential form of identification based on biometric features have been developed till today. Subsequently, the use of iris biometric authentication has been introduced in law enforcement to identify and track the criminals to ensure utmost public safety. The technology helps to overcome the loop falls of a traditional security system not only detecting the criminal but also preventing the crime. Read more…

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) A bi

Tips to Prevent Time Theft in Kronos Central/Dimension/Ready

A high-performing workforce management system, like Kronos, facilitates enterprises to forecast, schedule, and manage the time & attendance, absenteeism, labor activities, analytics, and collect employee’s data. Depending on the organization’s type and purpose, Kronos offers different workforce management suites like Workforce Central, Workforce Dimension Suite, and Workforce Ready Suite. The core objective of all of these solutions is to ensure maximum productivity by leveraging employee accountability, controlling labor costs, and increasing efficiency. But when it comes to time theft, it can cause some major issues and hamper the data’s accuracy and the effectiveness of the Kronos workforce management suites. Time Theft and its Impact on Business Time theft occurs when an employee is paid for the time they have not actually worked, or for the time they were not actually at work at all. Sometimes they will use friends and colleagues to help punch in his or her office

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
