Fujitsu has developed a small palm vein
authentication sensor that can be employed in tablet
devices.
The new sensor is just 5mm thick and uses new
image sensors and other optical components.
The new sensor preserves the same authentication
performance as Fujitsu's existing technology while
halving thickness of current models.
Fujitsu's biometric authentication technology is based
on the vein patterns in a user's palm. This approach has
a number of advantages that are unique even among
biometric authentication technologies, including high
authentication accuracy and the measurement of data from
inside of the body, which makes it difficult to falsify.
The technology has been commercialized by Fujitsu as a
non-contact palm vein authentication system called
PalmSecure, which is used, for instance, by banks to
authenticate their customers, for computer log-in, and
in room-entry/exit management systems. |
