Mitrefinch offer biometric technology for increased security and convenience.
What are biometrics?
Biometrics are the measurements of features of the body that are unique to each person. These can include fingerprint patterns, the patterns of veins in the hand or eye, distances between features on the face, the way you walk and many more.
Because there are slight differences between each person, these features provide a means of confirming a person is who they are claiming to be.
How can biometrics improve your time and attendance system?
Mitrefinch can incorporate a range of biometric devices into our clocks. These can be used as the sole means of registering attendance, or combined with a card to verify identity. Fingertip readers are our most popular product for their combination of convenience and affordability, but we can integrate with the technology of your choice to create a solution that meets your needs.
Biometric Drawbacks
Time & Attendance and clock manufacturers have always struggled with the same problems. BIometrics work great, when they work. One of the biggest problems holding companies back from moving towards biometrics is dealing with employees or conditions that make using biometrics difficult. In the past certain skin types were more difficult to read than others. Add to that environmental concerns, grease, moisture, and you've got a recipe for failure. That's why Mitrefinch has spent considerable time in researching and upgrading our existing fingerprint clocks to the LATEST technology available.
Welcome to Multispectral Imaging!
Mitrefinch time and attendance and access control systems will now incorporate the latest biometric reader technology which uses multiple spectrums of light and advanced polarization techniques to extract unique fingerprint characteristics from both the surface and subsurface of the skin. The nature of human skin physiology is such that this subsurface information is both relevant to fingerprint capture and unaffected by surface wear and other environmental factors.
Multispectral imaging is a sophisticated technology that was developed to overcome the fingerprint capture problems conventional imaging systems have in less-than-ideal conditions. Conventional technologies rely on unobstructed and complete contact between the fingerprint and the sensor, a condition that is often elusive in the real world as fingerprint characteristics can be obscured by moisture, dirt or wear.
