How do biometric applications and healthcare applications interact?
This depends on a particular vendor’s application requirements. In typical IDesia biometric/healthcare applications, biometrics and healthcare interact transparently. A user will have ECG and heart rate assessed whenever he or she attempts verification. Once verified, this data can be stored and compared with standards for his or her age group and gender, with the user’s historical records, or both. Alerts can be set to activate whenever readings out of normal bounds are encountered. More substantial health information can be acquired using specific healthcare applications, with health-related data only stored and utilized when the user’s identity is verified. Identity verification is performed in the background during the use of healthcare applications, and users are only alerted if and when a potential imposter is detected.
