In Access Control technology, biometrics refers to technologies that measure and analyze human body characteristics, such as fingerprints, eye retinas and irises, voice patterns, facial patterns and hand measurements, for authentication purposes.

Authentication by biometric verification is becoming increasingly common in corporate and public security systems, consumer electronics and point of sale (POS) applications.

In addition to security, the driving force behind biometric verification has been convenience. Biometric devices, such as finger scanners, consist of:

A reader or scanning device Software that converts the scanned information into digital form and compares match points

 A database that stores the biometric data for comparison To prevent identity theft, biometric data is usually encrypted when it's gathered. Here's how biometric verification works on the back end: To convert the biometric input, a software application is used to identify specific points of data as match points. The match points in the database are processed using an algorithm that translates that information into a numeric value. The database value is compared with the biometric input the end user has entered into the scanner and authentication is either approved or denied.

Biometric Finger Print Access Control Systems Finger print recognition is now one of the safest and most secure methods of access control.

Passwords and PIN numbers can be forgotten and keys and swipe cards can easily be lost or stolen. You can now use state of the art finger print biometrics technology, to control access to apartment buildings, office buildings, factories, leisure clubs etc.

Landlords and tenants, can enjoy special advantages by using Biometric Finger print Door Access Control Systems, as there is no need to change locks every time tenants change, or spend time at the locksmith having extra keys cut. The system also allows landlords access to all of their properties, without carrying a large bunch of keys and eliminates worry about tenants failing to return keys or cards on moving out.

The Advantages offered by biometric finger print systems are the higher level of security provided over existing products; new users can be authorized for access instantly, since there is no need to have extra keys cut, no concerns on cards being passed around and the products are easy to fit and fast to use. In order to open a lock using your fingerprint, you must first be enrolled onto the system by a simple quick process.

To open the locks simply place your fingerprint on the scanner and it is then cross-referenced against the stored 'authorized user' templates. When a match is found, authorization is complete and the lock opens. This whole process takes less than 1 second. These readers can also be installed onto conventional Access Control systems with card readers on some doors and Biometric readers on others.
