1. Face Recognition

Biometric technology supports public safety and improves an organisations interaction with people by knowing who they are and managing them at a personal level. Face Recognition provides an accurate and convenient method to authenticate and identify people allowing much more personalised services to be delivered. NEC support the products they supply ensuring that accuracy levels are maintained beyond the initial implementation.

Face recognition is a frictionless biometric that can be integrated into a multimodal approach utilising other biometrics or additional security tokens to provide even greater and faster authentication. The fact that facial images can be captured from a distance without touching the person being identified offers distinct advantages over other biometrics systems for certain applications.

2. Iris Recognition

Iris Recognition technology is a biometrics identifier that uses patterns from the iris. From the standpoint of privacy protection and security enhancement, government agencies in particular are in growing need of reliable personal authentication for purposes that include citizen ID, immigration control and criminal investigations. NEC is a leading supplier and integrator of biometrics solutions to Financial Industries.

3. Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition

NEC leads the market in accurate and fast finger and palm print biometric scanning, matching and recognition and has provided such systems and expertise for over 30 years. NEC’s Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition software is independently recognised as the fastest and most accurate on the global market.
