Биометриялық құрылғылардың түрлері

Biometric devices are a general term that includes many technologies, including the common fingerprints and faces, as well as uncommon gait, voice, and so on. Now let us check the types of biometric device

Contact biometric devices

Саусақ ізін тану

Fingerprint recognition uses the characteristic data of human fingertips to distinguish and identify. Fingerprint recognition is a relatively mature technology among many biometric technologies and is also the most widely used technology;

Оптикалық саусақ ізі сканер

The optical fingerprint scanner forms an image by taking a photo of the fingerprint through an optical sensor;

Capacitive fingerprint scanner

The capacitive fingerprint sensor forms a command by pressing the capacitive sensor and the voltage value generated by the fingertips of the two capacitive sensors;

Whether it is an optical fingerprint device or a capacitive fingerprint device, you need to pay attention to two points: fingerprint image and fingerprint features;

Fingerprint image:

The original image extracted from the fingerprint scanner device without processing is called a fingerprint image. This image is not processed and carries a large amount of data;

Three parameters need to be paid attention to in the fingerprint image, namely image size, image resolution and image grayscale;

In the fingerprint scanner, different fingerprint sizes are different, and the corresponding image resolution and image grayscale are also different;

The following lists the size, image resolution and image grayscale required from FAP10-FAP60

Fingerprint features:

Fingerprint features refer to a data file of a string of fingerprint features generated by a feature extraction algorithm after an unprocessed fingerprint image is processed by an algorithm. This data file can be used to generate a fingerprint template;

Fingerprint images can be processed to generate fingerprint features, but fingerprint features cannot be restored to fingerprint images;

How do fingerprint scanner work？

Fingerprint registration:

Fingerprint registration is also called fingerprint registration. Fingerprint registration requires extracting features from fingerprint images to form feature value templates, and then binding these feature value templates with the user’s personal information;

Fingerprint verification:

Fingerprint verification determines whether the user’s information is consistent with the fingerprint feature template stored in the database. It is a 1:1 comparison technology. This process is used to determine whether you are you;

Fingerprint identification:

Fingerprint identification is a 1:N process. The fingerprint collected on site is searched in a huge database to see if it is the same database as the fingerprint collected on site. This process is used to determine who you are;

Fingerprint Recognition Pro & Cons

Stability:

Everyone’s fingerprints are fixed since birth. Although the fingerprint lines will only increase with age, the type, structure, and detailed features of the fingerprint will not change.

Uniqueness:

The generation of fingerprints is determined by each person’s DNA, because fingerprints are unique;

Wear:

For those who often do manual work, fingerprints are seriously worn. It affects both identification and verification;

Hygiene:

Fingerprint recognition is a contact recognition, which is prone to cross-hygiene infection;

Signature Recognition

Signature recognition has been updated from traditional paper signatures to using a stylus to sign your name on an electronic screen;

Signature recognition determines whether your name is yours by the weight of your pen strokes, handwriting, and stroke weight;

The naked eye cannot distinguish the weight of the strokes, pen strokes, but the electronic screen can sense the changes in your handwriting.

This is why traditional paper signatures are easy to imitate, but electronic signatures cannot be imitated;

Pros&Cons

• Ыңғайлылық:

Electronic signatures speed up the signing and verification process, and there is no need to pass paper documents back and forth;

• Anti-counterfeiting:

Electronic signatures are mainly used to verify personal identity information. Before using electronic signatures, cryptography and digital certificates are already compatible, and the anti-counterfeiting level is high;

• Ыңғайлылық:

Electronic signatures speed up the signing and verification process, and there is no need to pass paper documents back and forth;

• Anti-counterfeiting:

Electronic signatures are mainly used to verify personal identity information. Before using electronic signatures, cryptography and digital certificates are already compatible, and the anti-counterfeiting level is high;

• Hardware:

• Network:

Signature recognition requires the use of information from the database for comparison. In the absence of a network environment, the overall recognition process will not be smooth;

Application：

• Financial industry:
• Legal industry

Gait behavior

Gait behavior determines your relevant information by obtaining footprints; gait information includes body posture, walking speed, walking amplitude and frequency, etc.

For example, for people who use their left shoulder for a long time, the spine will tilt to the left, and the gravity of the left foot will be higher than that of the right foot;

The gait data of people with prosthetic limbs will be different from that of ordinary people;

Contactless biometric devices

Facial recognition terminals

Бетті тану is a technology that identifies facial information. It uses a camera to obtain images or video streams of faces, and uses face recognition algorithms to analyze and store the acquired information. It is mainly used in smart security, personnel screening, etc.

How do face recognition work

The main processes of face recognition work include: face collection and inspection, image processing, image feature extraction, image matching and recognition;

• Face collection:

Collect the user’s face information in different states through the camera, such as different expressions, dynamic and static effects, different positions, different clothes, etc.;

The main factors affecting the face image are

Image size, image resolution, lighting environment, blur, occlusion, collection angle

• Image processing

Mark the face information in the image and find useful data, such as expression, position, eyebrow size, etc.

• Мүмкіндіктерді шығару:

Based on the useful information marked in image processing, the facial algorithm is used to export the image feature template for the final step of matching and comparison;

• Matching and comparison:

Matching is to compare the collected information with the information in the database to find the user information of this feature value, which is a 1:N match;

Comparison is to compare the data collected on site with the user information stored in the database to determine whether the two information are consistent, which is a 1:1 comparison.

Pros & Cons：

• Non-contact:

Face recognition is a non-contact recognition technology, and there is no risk of health infection;

• Fast recognition speed:

Face recognition can be completed in a few seconds, and the recognition speed is very fast;

• Privacy data:

The data collected by face recognition involves personal sensitive information, which needs to be considered for users who care about user privacy

Application:

• Access control application:
• Smart security:

IRIS Recognition:

Iris recognition uses a camera to obtain an iris image, and then uses an iris algorithm to analyze the collected image to form an iris feature template. Subsequent registration and comparison can be done by calling this iris feature template in a timely manner.

How do iris recognitioon work?

1. Collect images; collect iris images through the camera;
2. Locate the iris: locate the position of the iris in the unprocessed image and mark the iris data;
3. Feature template: apply the iris algorithm to the marked iris data to generate a unique iris feature template;
4. Compare: compare and verify the generated iris feature template in the database;

Pros & Cons:
