IDENTIFICATION THINK EXCELLENCE, CHOOSE MULTIMODALITY
WHAT IS MULTIMODALITY? MULTIMODALITY: COMBINATION OF 2 OR SEVERAL COMPLEMENTARY BIOMETRICS Examples: Face and Iris, Hand and face, Finger vein & Fingerprint One of the key challenges for the biometric industry is to combine accuracy (characterized by the FRR*@FAR** ratio), universality and cost efficiency of the solution. In the recent years, an innovative approach combining two or more biometrics has been introduced to cope with these new challenges. Multimodality has become this ultimate solution to reach an unrivalled level of performance. This approach is especially efficient when the two sets of biometric data can be captured and processed at the same time, using a single device. Morpho has launched a new range of devices that simultaneously captures, extracts and processes finger vein and fingerprint biometrics. This new multimodal technology now reaches unparalleled levels of security, accuracy and performance. MULTIMODAL FINGER VEIN AND FINGERPRINT: A GROUND-BREAKING TECHNOLOGY The 2 biometrics are mature and above all independent, enabling an efficient fusion Same ergonomics and ease of use as for fingerprint alone can be reproduced FINGERPRINT FINGER VEIN Simultaneous acquisition is possible without any challenging technological evolution The processing of the two bometrics doesn t require more ressources than a mono-modal device The merged template size remains smaller than 1 KByte Spoof resistance is increased as 2 biometrics need to be reproduced, including one which is not directly accessible *FRR: False Rejection Rate **FAR: False Acceptance Rate
BASICS OF FINGER VEIN AND FINGERPRINT MULTIMODAL TECHNOLOGY MULTIMODAL FEATURES EXTRACTION PROCESS When the finger touches the sensor, the papillary network is given by total reflection Image acquisition Feature extraction Coding Finger Vein and Fingerprint merged template The image of the middle phalanx vein network is captured directly after a close infrared illumination of the finger Fusion The image acquisition and the feature extraction of the 2 sets of data are made at the same time. MULTIMODAL COMPARISON PROCESS Contactless card Finger Vein and Fingerprint merged template (1 multimodal reference) (N multimodal reference template) 1:1 matching 1:N matching Granted Denied Granted Denied Data Base Finger VP merged templates provide all the benefits derived from fingerprint based authentication, ensuring identification against large database.
ADVANTAGES OF FINGER VEIN AND FINGERPRINT MULTIMODALITY FINGER VEIN AND FINGERPRINT MULTIMODALITY ENSURES HIGHER PERFORMANCE AND SPOOFING RESISTANCE THAN A MONO-MODAL FINGER VEIN OR FINGERPRINT TECHNOLOGY Multimodal finger vein and fingerprint technology improves both FAR and FRR compared to mono-modal technologies used separately. Spoofing a multimodal finger vein and fingerprint biometric device is much harder than spoofing 2 mono-modal devices used independently. FRR@FAR ratio is greatly enhanced It reduces the FRR 10-fold (for FAR=10-4 ) FTE rate is drastically improved It gives a relevant solution for individuals who usually experience difficulties with mono-modal devices. Anti-Spoofing features are strengthened It combines the protection mechanisms intrinsic to each technology and also makes the most of the new characteristics resulting from the fusion.
