Fingerprint Recognition
Fingerprint recognition identifies people by using the impressions made by the minute ridge formations or patterns found on the fingertips. Finger printing takes an image of a person's fingertips and records its characteristics - whorls, arches, and loops are recorded along with patterns of ridges, furrows, and minutiae. Information is processed as an image and further encoded as a computer algorithm.
It is one of the most developed biometrics, with more history, research, and design. Since the information in the database is encoded with a mathematical algorithm, recreation of a fingerprint is extremely difficult on even a limited scale with most modern systems. In most cases no image of the fingerprint is actually created, only a set of data that can be used for comparison. Over the years fingerprint recognition has become one of the most widely used biometric technology with a number of civil and criminal automated fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) in use across the world.
Fingerprint Identity Solutions
HRS over the last six years has helped develop and deliver a range of fingerprint based identification solutions across both public and private sector. Our team of biometric engineers have been at the forefront of developing large complex fingerprint solutions helping support national/local government identity solutions.
