The future is here. Biometric technology has arrived in the area of home security, and we are pleased to offer innovative biometric access control. In the old days, access to restricted areas was granted by metal keys and locks. Second, technology has advanced identity cards and PIN numbers. But now you have the ultimate in access control.
What is a biometric reader?
"Biometric" comes from the Greek bios ("life") and metron ("measure"). A biometric reader recognizes humans based on their physical characteristics. For example, a biometric reader can read eye retinas or irises, facial patterns, hand measurements or fingerprints.
Unlike keys, cards, or number sequences, access through a biometric reader can be transferred from one person unless explicitly authorized.
How does a fingerprint reader?
A biometric reader can be used as a stand-alone or network operation, perfect for home or office. An authorized person has their physical characteristic scanned and converted into a numerical algorithm which is then entered into a database. The authorized person must subsequently provide that same physical characteristic, for example, their hand, to be read and recognized by the biometric reader before access is granted.
Why use a biometric reader?
A biometric reader is a device more reliable than your average lock or keypad. Only the person authorized to access may pass a biometric reader. A key, card or sequence number can be transmitted easily or stolen. A biometric reader requires that the authorized person be physically present to grant access to. Thieves and other criminals who have difficulty in the past a biometric reader.
Other reasons to use a biometric reader:
1. It is affordable and user friendly, while recognizing identity and granting access in less than a second.
2. Biometric reader can store information from 512 users (standard) up to 35,512 users (networked).
3. A biometric reader drives costs down while increasing the level of security.
biometric access control reader can be integrated into your security system.
