The Technology

Near-infrared light is transmitted through the finger and partially absorbed by hemoglobin in the veins, enabling an image of the finger vein pattern to be captured by the CCD camera.

• The veins are inside the body, invisible to the eye, and not accessible. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to forge and impossible to manipulate.

• The use of light transmission to gather biometric data means that the condition of the skin surface does not affect accurate processing.

• The use of unique vein patterns plus leading-edge technology means high accuracy rates (very low FTE, FRR and FAR) as tested during the CBT round 6 conducted by the International Biometric Group (IBG).

• Only a small amount of data is required, allowing fast authentication (< 1 second) and increased portability.

The Business CaseFV offers a fast, convenient, and non-invasive method of authentication, while maintaining consumer privacy.

The SpecificationsHigh security, private, and excellent accuracy in a small footprint with a competitive price in the market makes FV the correct choice.
