  • A palm shows intention, a face shows presence.
  • Palm biometrics are highly reliable.
  • Palm biometrics respects the privacy of the user.
  • Palm biometrics are highly accurate.
  • Palm biometrics are inclusive.
  • Palm is extremely hard to spoof.
The human palm is a complex set of skin lines and creases that is unique enough to identify an individual. When a palm is placed in front of a camera from a distance of around six inches (15 cm) even a low-end camera such as ones already installed in phones, laptops and ATMs can capture the palm skin in great detail. Once captured the biometrics pipeline is a two stage process:

The PalmID® Capture Module

The PalmID® Capture Module uses sophisticated machine vision techniques to turn the RGB video input stream into an authentication-ready palm image

The PalmID® Matching Module

The PalmID® Matching Module matches in real time the captured palm image against stored references. This process uses proprietary algorithms extensively tested against large datasets of palm images that ensure no false positives. Depending on the security model required, this process can be run on a remote server or locally.

Security

Security - Palm vein scan is more secure than other biometrics because it`s never exposed.

Privacy

Since palm vein recognition is internal, it not only has significant security advantages but privacy advantages as well.

Accuracy

Since the palm has a larger surface area than the finger or iris, for example, the palm vein scanner is able to capture a larger number of data points. This gives it an accuracy advantage compared to other biometrics.

Reliability

Each person`s palm vein pattern remains relatively stable throughout life, so the chance that a registered user will have to re-enroll in the future is very low.

Hygiene

Palm vein is contactless, meaning that you don`t have to touch the sensor to scan your palm. To identify yourself, simply hover your hand over the scanner — no touch required.

01. Palm Scan

PalmID Terminal turns palm print and palm vein images into an encrypted biometric signature, then sends the signature to SaaS server.

02. Match Biometric Signature

PalmID SaaS server matches the biometric signature with all registered records in its database, then sends the User ID of the matched record to retail server.

03. Generate Credit Card Token

Retail Server uses the User ID to locate the consumer account that includes credit card token, then sends the credit card token to the payment gateway.

04. Payment Gateway

Payment service providers charge the customer’ credit card account.
