Face and fingerprint are two of the most widely used biometric traits
across institutions of most domains; smartphones and automotive being the
highest. The applications range from attendance tracking to providing access
control to employees, students, officials, laborers, and other users. It also
eliminates the need to carry physical ID proofs and remember passwords all the
time to prove identity. Biometric devices use unique physiological
characteristics of a person to provide authentication. The most important
reason for all of these users to shift from logbooks to biometrics is that
technology-enabled with biometric access control systems phenomenally eliminate
man-made errors.
We must admit to a fact that face duplication may occur in the case of
twins, but their fingerprints will always be unique. The magnitude of instances
where this can happen is meager at workplaces though. There can also be a few
instances where the fingerprints of an individual are not available due to
accidents or dirt. Face recognition then becomes a reliable option since facial
features are always available in every individual. Face recognition systems can be made to work using just software but fingerprint enabled systems do require a combination of both hardware and software. This will further increase the cost of implementation. So, to implement facial recognition in a smartphone, all the manufacturer has to do is invest in good face recognition software.

To get a face scanned, the person need not come in contact with any device
or parts of it. This makes face recognition non-intrusive, unlike fingerprint
scanning. Remote verification is one of the advantages of using a face
recognition system.
A possibility for spoofing a facial recognition system arises when the
implementations are not capable of mapping the face in a 3-D configuration. In
such cases, anybody can spoof the system by using another person’s photograph.
Hence it is highly crucial to have updated versions of these devices to
minimize False Acceptance Rate (FAR).
eSSL provides a wide range of products related to security and biometrics.
It makes attendance management and access control for many companies easy, fast
and convenient. Facial recognition and fingerprint software are available by
which users can manage in and out movements of people at their property
effectively. If you are still confused about which biometric method is the
best, we also have multi-functional devices that are capable of face
recognition, fingerprint scanning, and RFIDs: all under one device
installation.
Face recognition is better than finger print, because finger print can be distorted easily, i experienced this in a company which deals in motor bike, there was a group of people who handle the battery part of the motor bike, these people all the time they were refilling acid in batteries and while doing this sometime they have to touch the acid witht fingers. And their fingers.
ReplyDeleteFirst time when i came to enroll them the finger worked properly but they call me after like 6months saying that the machine is not accepting their fingers then i came and notice that their finger print has got distorted by acid.
Which can't happen to the face or Iris. Unless someone commit a deadly accident. And other people always distort their finger prints willingly in order to do not be recognized by customs or police. Thank face recognition is better and it save time as well as compare to finger print system.
Thank you Essl Team.
