What are the potential applications for ultrasonic fingerprint readers?
The proven ability of ultrasound to quickly, reliably, and positively identify individuals in unattended situations has greatly expanded the number of potential applications, particularly in those areas where positive identification is required. Critical identification applications include airport security, access control at industrial and government facilities, employee time and attendance, retail fraud protection, online access, ATMs, medical records and patient privacy, access to prescription drugs in a hospital or at a retail pharmacy, identification of children and parents at day care centers, driver’s licenses, library cards, retail loyalty programs, fleet driver identification, and many others.
