continuously adopt technologies that would ensure that the company is always ahead of its competitors. Technology, especially in the field of Information technology is changing at a rapid rate. The challenge that most organisations are facing is whether to adopt new technology that hasn’t been proven or adopt technology that has been proven as a success. Both of them have risks linked to them. Adopting unproven technology there is a risk loss of money in the event that the technology is a failure but

developing a system, Student’s Attendance System (SAS) that will record the attendance of student in FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC NEKEDE. SAS using fingerprint technology to authenticate every student by using their fingerprint in order to get an accurate record. The fingerprint technology is cheaper and easy to implement compared to other biometrics technology. The fingerprint only authenticates the validated student. SAS with the fingerprint features can make the system secure because no student can record

without express written permission. Biometric Scanning Technologies: Finger, Facial and Retinal Scanning This paper discusses several Biometric scan technologies: finger-scan, facialscan and retinal-scan. We discuss the recent history of Biometrics and how it has been influenced by such pseudo-sciences as Phrenology, the study of human skull characteristics and Anthropometry, the study of human body measurement. We discuss how finger-scan technology was influenced by French and British police

Today many biometric technologies such as face, iris, voice print and hand based biometrics traits (palm print or fingerprint) can be used to identify persons. Each biometrics has its advantages and defects; no single biometric can effectively meet all requirements like accuracy, practicality and cost of all applications (Maltoni, Maio, Jain, & Prabhakar, 2003). Some of the most frequently used biometric systems are shown in figure 1.2. Face Recognition (Li and Jain, 2005) identifies user or people

3-20-14 Biometric Scan Technologies This essay covers the basic history, importance, and impacts biometric technologies have on our security, and what the future may hold because of them. When speaking of biometrics, fingerprinting is usually the first biometric method most people consider. However, throughout the years, biometric technology has advanced and accrued new methods such as facial recognition and iris scanning. First off, we will discuss finger-scanning, or fingerprinting, as it

A FINGERPRINT BASED BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM FOR TIME AND ATTENDANCE MANAGEMENT ABSTRACT This project is about designing a system that automates the whole process of taking attendance and maintaining its records in an academic institute. Managing people is a difficult task for most of the organizations, and maintaining the attendance record is an important factor in people management. When considering academic institutes, taking the attendance of students on daily basis

ATTENDANCE SYSTEM” , 2010. Biometrics is the very study of identifying a person by his/her physical traits that are inherent and unique to only the person concerned. Biometric measurement and assessment include fingerprint verification, iris recognition, palm geometry, face recognition etc. The above mentioned techniques work with different levels of functionality and accuracy. Accuracy and reliability are the two most important parameters when it comes to biometric applications. Fingerprint

Biometric Identification Biometric identification systems use a physical characteristic that help with identification. These characteristics could be fingerprints, hand geometry, retina scans, iris scans, face recognition, voice analysis, palm vein authentication, DNA, and even signatures. There are certain factors that are needed to make sure that biometric identification is successful. The physical characteristic should not change over time, the characteristic
