Finger vein biometrics, also known as vascular biometrics, identifies a user based on the vein patterns in their fingers, which are unique to every person. Traditionally, Finger Vein Technology has been considered one of the most effective ways of identifying a person, but the invasive nature of its scanning devices never really gained much popularity.
The Hitachi C-1 Finger Vein Reader is a unique device since users don’t need to get in direct contact with the device. The users have to hold three fingers over the device, maintaining a safe distance of 20mm between their fingers and the device for identification and authentication. The process is completely contactless and highly secured.
Our device can process speedy and accurate authentication of finger vein patterns using a unique proprietary algorithm.
The compact size reader can be integrated into various devices and terminals for safe and secure authentication.
Scanning a finger is a contactless operation meaning that the identification process is very hygienic and simple to use.
| Category | Fingerprint | Finger vein | Facial | Iris |
| Accuracy | Medium to high False acceptance rate is 0.2% to 22%. False Rejection Rate is 0% to 8% |
High False acceptance rate is 0% - 0.9% False rejection rate is 0% to 1.8% |
Medium to high False acceptance rate is 3.3% - 37% False rejection rate is 0.3% to 5% |
High False acceptance rate is 0.9% -3 %False rejection rate is <1%< /td> |
| User acceptance | It is popular technology, but users have concerns about fingerprint misuse and hygiene issue | Easy to use over USB 2.0 connectivity, highly secured. | Users feel less comfortable using their faces for authentication due to concerns over photo pulling | User resistance is seen due to not being familiar with the technology and usage difficulty. |
| Cost | Highly affordable, but it is hard to find quality scanners with reliable sensors. | Considering the quality, durability and accuracy rate, these are extremely inexpensive. | Moderate to high depending on the sensor quality and capability. | High. It requires a highly expensive imaging sensor to capture iris images for authentication. |
| Risk of spoofing | Medium. Depending on the encryption method used there is the possibility of replication. | Very low, vein patterns are hard to replicate, making it difficult for data spoofing. | High. Facial biometric technology is highly susceptible to spoofing. | Very low, iris patterns are hard to replicate, making it difficult for data spoofing. |
| Aging factor | Low stability, as fingerprints are affected by aging, physical deformation or environmental factors. | Highly stable. Finger vein patterns are long lasting, don’t change over the years or environmental factors. | Medium stability, as facial patterns are likely to change with aging. | Stable, iris patterns don’t change over the years. |
