Snowflake Technologies launches biometrics for business prototype
Memphis-based biometrics company Snowflake Technologies launched its identity verification system which uses vein pattern recognition. The system identifies enrolled users by scanning the subcutaneous vein patterns in his or her hand by placing a in the device for a second to verify identity. The system works because, like a snowflake, no two vein patterns are alike.
“Once thought to be only part of sci-fi and government espionage movies, biometrics solutions are real and readily available to progressive companies today,” Brad Silver, Snowflake vice president of business development, said. “Forget PINS, signatures and photo IDs. You already have everything you need to confirm your identity, and it’s just below the skin’s surface.” ![[end]](/resources/bullet/thirdfactor-4.gif)
