Introduction:

Currently, passwords, Personal Identification Numbers or identification cards are used for personal identification.

In biometric authentication, an account holder’s body characteristics or behaviors are registered in a database and then compared with others who may try to access that account.

A key advantage of biometric authentication is that biometric data is based on physical characteristics that stay constant throughout one’s lifetime and are difficult (some more than others) to fake or change.

Biometric identification can provide extremely accurate, secured access to information; fingerprints, palm vein and iris scans produce absolutely unique data sets (when done properly).

To solve these problems, Fujitsu developed four methods:

fingerprints, faces, voice prints and palm veins.

Among these, because of its high accuracy, contact less palm vein authentication technology is being incorporated

In this technology ONE’S PALM is used as the “PASSWORD” for verification.

The veins present in the palm of the individual are scanned & verified thus providing the access.

Palm vein authentication has a high level of authentication accuracy due to the uniqueness and complexity of vein patterns of the palm.

OPERATION PRINCIPLE :

WORKING:

Unlike the skin, through which near-infrared light passes, deoxygenated hemoglobin in the blood flowing through the veins absorbs near-infrared rays, causing it to be visible as black regions to the scanner.

Arteries and capillaries, whose blood contains oxygenated hemoglobin, which does not absorb near-infrared light, are invisible to the sensor, hence we chosen “VEINS”.

Principle Involved

An individual's palm vein image is converted by algorithms into data points, which is then compressed, encrypted, and stored by the software person when ever access it, the data is compared with stored one, thus verification is done.

Fujitsu research is the one main company which has come up with first basis of “ PALM VEIN TECHNOLOGY”

How secure is technology? On the basis of testing the technology on more than 70,000

individuals , Fujitsu declared that the new system had a false rejection rate of 0.01%.

In addition the devices ability to perform personal authentication was verified using the following:

1. Data from people ranging from 6 to 85 years old including people in various occupations.

2. Data about foreigners living in Japan in accordance with the world demographics released by the united nations.

Palm vein authentication device(hygiene concern)

The completely contactless feature of this Device makes it suitable for use where high levels of hygiene are required.

It also eliminates any hesitation people might have about coming into contact with something that other people have already touched.

In addition to being contactless and thereby hygienic and

user-friendly in that the user does not need to physically touch a surface and is free of such hygiene concerns.
