Biometric modality: Vascular- use cases
- Vascular biometric systems are currently being deployed or developed for a wide range of applications including security access in premises, sports venues and automobiles, financial transactions (ATMs and bank cards), time and attendance monitoring and computer network authentication.
- Contactless enrolment and verification procedures make vascular biometric systems suitable for operations that require a sterile or strictly hygienic environment, for example, identity management applications in medical facilities (verifying the identity of unconscious patients in operating theatres), pharmaceutical laboratories and food industry settings.
- The speed of data acquisition in the enrolment and verification processes suits situations where there is a high volume of users such as airports, educational establishments, large commercial premises/factories etc.
- Visible vascular patterns on the surface of the skin have been employed by investigators to assist in identifying online child abusers and terrorists from video footage.
