Law enforcement statistics estimate that 30% of all latent prints left at crime scenes are palm prints. With the advent of palm search capabilities in the Law enforcement agencies database, it is now possible to search against latent and live palm images in real-time. As the number and quality of palm images available for query continue to increase, the use of palm biometrics is set to grow accordingly. From a technological perspective, palm prints are captured in much the same way that fingerprint images are – through optical, thin-film transistor, or subdermal sensors. Advantages of palm as a biometric: Offers all of the advantages of fingerprints, but with substantially more data to compare against existing records Increasing availability of comparison records in international, Federal, and State law enforcement database.

 

Biomsecure offers the advantages of fingerprinting & facial recognition for efficient data comparison against existing records. The immense value of biometrics to border control systems quickly became evident, leading to a dramatic expansion of deployments around the world. Today, biometrics are at the core of most border management systems. To meet the demand for strong identity confirmation at international borders, many countries now include biometric indicators in documents such as passports, national ID cards, and drivers’ licenses. Automated border security systems, which are making international travel more secure and more convenient for millions of passengers, depend to a great extent on biometrics. Realizing that border control personnel are a cost driver, many countries have started to use electronic gates, kiosks, and other technologies that allow travelers to complete most (if not all) of the border control procedure on their own. These advances would not be possible without biometrics, which gives border control agencies the assurance that travelers are who they say they are. In parallel with the biometric systems now deployed at borders around the world, the travel industry is also beginning to use biometrics in its systems as well. Airlines and other transportation providers are rapidly discovering that biometrics can replace a boarding pass, a frequent flier card, and even the need for cash on board a flight.
