BIOMETRIC READERS AND SCREENING DEVICES

In the world of Access Control, people are getting more and more familiar with the technology used. Proximity, Laser, RFID technologies can easily be breached because the cards, barcode decals and RFID tags can easily be shared, lost and stolen. Therefore there is a requirement of reader technology that can offer a highest level of security and Biometrics is a solution for that.

In Biometrics the image of physical characteristics like fingers, hands, eyes etc. is stored as identification and each time a person requires an access, depending upon the type of Biometric reader he has to compare his current image with the stored image. This has a major advantage because this identification cannot be duplicated, lost or stolen. Another advantage is that the person does not have to carry any card, barcode decal or RFID tag.

Biometrics can offer the level of security within itself. For example, fingerprint scanners can be set to test the print of a single finger or require all ten digits before allowing access. Putting a lot of data in a user profile, however, means that login takes longer. On the other hand, the more complex a profile is, the harder it is to replicate or fake.

This technology can be used at Military departments, Airports, Hospitals, Research and Development Laboratories, Government offices and many other places where you highest level of security is needed.

All access control systems from AMTEL can handle practically any type of screening device on the market today. AMTEL provides Fingerprint readers with built-in proximity readers, Hand Geometry reader.
