It offers a highly accurate, contactless and easy-to-deploy solution in a convenient form factor that meets customers' SSO needs at a price point that is very favorable compared to other biometric solutions."
PalmSecure technology uses a near-infrared light to capture a user's palm vein pattern, generating a unique biometric template that is matched against pre-registered users' palm vein patterns. It is a contactless authentication technology that offers an easy-to-use, hygienic solution for verifying identity. This advanced, vascular pattern recognition solution is highly reliable and in a form factor that is non-intrusive and generates extremely fast authentication.
