Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition

NEC leads the market in accurate and fast finger and palm print biometric scanning, matching and recognition and has provided such systems and expertise for over 30 years. NEC’s Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition software is independently recognised as the fastest and most accurate on the global market. NEC was ranked #1 in two consecutive fingerprint recognition benchmark tests conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), greatly exceeding all other vendors in both accuracy and speed. This technology is used by international airports for border protection and law enforcement agencies for public safety, capturing millions of people every day.

We’re constantly developing new ways to apply this technology and we collaborate with our customers to generate innovative ideas. Our R&D team fine-tune the technology to help customers achieve their business objectives in the most efficient and cost effective way.

Who we work with

From single fingerprint to tenprint and palm print capture and matching, from single finger devices to robust LiveScan kiosks for capture, printing, storage and transmission via a single ergonomic workstation, NEC is trusted by over 11,000 customers across New Zealand, Australia and the Asia Pacific region. Here are some of the industries that we work with:

Key features and benefits of NEC’s Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition

NEC has deployed its identification systems to over 1,000 customers in more than 30 countries. Our expertise in unified communications and systems integration enables us to be one of the few companies that can supply all levels of integrated security solutions — from hardware and networking to applications and service.

NEC’s Fingerprint and Palm Print Recognition software is independently recognised as the fastest and most accurate on the global market – here are some of the features and benefits.

Unsurpassed finger and palm print accuracy
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) matching algorithm recognition benchmarks have consistently proven that NEC’s biometric technologies have the fastest and most accurate fingerprint and palm print algorithm. View the NIST results.
Lowest false accept and false reject rates
NEC’s algorithm yields the lowest false accept rate (FAR) and false reject rate (FRR) in the industry.
Integration with 3rd party peripherals
The NEC capture and matching algorithm will work with scanners, readers and peripherals from multiple suppliers including integration with driver license readers.
Unique matching algorithm
NEC finger/palm print identification technology is empowered by a unique matching algorithm (the minutiae and relation method) that uses ridge counts and the relationship between minutiae.
Fastest searches
NEC provides the fastest 1:n database searches for matching and identification.
Mobile options for public safety applications in the field
NeoScan 45 is the fastest and most accurate mobile solution for plain and roll, single and multiple fingerprints in the field.
