Nedap, Hitachi partner on finger vein technology

Nedap and Hitachi have worked together to integrate finger vein verification into the Nedap access control system AEOS.

Finger vein recognition is a relatively new biometric technology. Each individual’s vein pattern is unique. Finger vein recognition works by shining infrared light through the finger which is absorbed by the haemoglobin of the blood in the veins. This results in an image of the unique vein pattern. [end]
