Transcript of Palm vein Technology
• Defined as recognizing and identifying
a person based on
physiological or behavioural characteristics.
• Any detail of the human body which differs from
one human to other can be used as unique biometric data.
BIOMETRICS
• Fingerprint authentication system.
• Facial recognition.
• Iris recognition.
• Voice recognition.
BIOMETRIC SYSTEMS
FINGER PRINT SYSTEM
The problems with finger print system …
Can be easily copied.
Wrong results if the finger is dirty or wounded.
False positives if the software is not sufficiently sophisticated.
Concerns over hygiene.
FACIAL BIOMETRICS
Susceptible to environmental changes such as lighting.
Depends on the expressions of face.
Changes in appearance with the use of cosmetics, hair styling etc
It's estimated there's a 5% drop in accuracy per year due to aging.
The problems with facial biometrics system …
IRIS SCANNING
The problems with Iris scanning system …
Iris scanners can be easily fooled by a high quality image of an iris or
face in place of the real thing.
Accuracy of scanners can be affected by changes in lighting.
More expensive than other forms of biometrics.
Very difficult to perform at a larger distance.
ONE’S PALM is used as the “PASSWORD” for verification.
Has a high level of authentication accuracy due to the
uniqueness and complexity of vein patterns of the palm.
PALM VEIN TECHNOLOGY
The human palm vein pattern is extremely complex.
Veins are located inside the human body, and therefore it is
protected against forgery and manipulation.
The position of the palm vein vessels remain the same for
the whole life and its pattern is absolutely unique.
Records vein patterns only in live individuals. Therefore, zero
possibility of manipulations involving deceased entities.
WHY PALM VEINS?
Palm has to be
positioned
3-8 cm over the
sensor
Sensor emits near
infrared
beam to the palm
Oxygen reduced blood
within the veins absorbs
the near infrared light
The sensors wide angular near
infrared camera takes a raw
image of the palm vein pattern
The sensors template library
SW changes the raw image
into template data
The generated template
can be stored in either a
database
PALM VEIN AUTHENTICATION
HOW SECURE IS THE TECHNOLOGY?
On the basis of testing the technology by Fujitsu :
The system had a False Rejection Rate (FAR) of 0.01%
(i.e., only one out of 10,000 scans were incorrect denials for access).
A False Acceptance Rate of less than 0.00008%
(i.e., incorrect approval for access in one in over a million scans).
