Biometrics Selection Guide

Biometric Technology: Fingerprint

Manufacturer/Brand name: CEM Systems

Distributor/Supplier: Tyco Security Products

Device: S610f Fingerprint Reader

Description: The S610f is part of CEM’s S610 intelligent card reader range. The S610f features a keypad for optional PIN security, a backlit LCD which displays reader messages such as ‘Wrong Zone’, ‘Lost/ Stolen Card’ and an internal database which provides full off-line validation at the door at all times. In addition, the S610f features a fully integrated biometric module for fingerprint biometric verification. The S610f fingerprint reader meets requirements for three stage identity authentication (card, PIN and biometric verification), making it ideal for areas which require the highest level of security.

Application:

* The S610f is ideal for any site with a requirement for flexible biometric access control. Fingerprint and PIN verification can be deactivated when not required and activated to provide two- or three- stage authentication depending on the needs of the site.

Integration support:

* S610f is an integrated fingerprint solution with fingerprints being captured and enrolled on the AC2000 system at the same time as card personnel details are captured.

Biometric Technology: Fingerprint

Manufacturer/Brand name: HID Global

Distributor/Supplier: Lumidigm

Device: Lumidigm

Description: Lumidigm’s technology solves problems with traditional biometric technology, whose contact-based measurement accuracy is degraded by non-ideal skin condition, poorly-defined or damaged fingerprints, and adverse environmental conditions. In contrast, multispectral imaging technology uses multiple light spectrums and advanced polarisation techniques to extract unique fingerprint characteristics from both the surface and subsurface of the skin. This additional data enables multispectral imaging-based solutions to deliver the highest-quality fingerprint image and to more effectively discriminate real from imposter or spoof fingerprints.
