Vein Recognition Technology Vein

recognition is a type of biometrics that can be used to identify individuals based on the vein patterns in the human finger.

Vein ID System A type of biometrics

identification system that uses veins in a person's body to establish identity

use infrared light to scan the user's hand

to make an identification match

Prominence of biometric

technologies fingerprinting, facial

recognition, hand geometry, and iris recognition may leave little demand

unique features and advantages for other modalities

The up-and-coming biometric technologies include vein, DNA, ear, and body odor recognition

How does it work? By identifying the

subcutaneous Hand is placed on

a scanner Red blood cells

absorb the infrared rays

After the vein template is extracted

Compared with previously stored patterns

“Uses”

Variations of Vein Recognition Technology

It include finger vein, wrist vein, palm, and backhand vein recognition

The technology was commercialized in 2004.

The prominent companies are Fujitsu Limited Hitachi, Ltd., Techsphere Company Ltd.

Fujitsu’s product called PalmSecure scans the veins present under the palms,

Hitachi’s product scans veins present in the finger.

Techsphere’s product called VP-II scans, scan veins located on the wrists

“Some products scan veins located on the wrists as well.”
