New Technological Waves in Biometrics

Biometric solution providers from all around the world are striving in a new technological transformation to help the world restore its functions through touch-free operations. The fact that most of the business activities are hindered at a global level did not stop biometric industries from developing solutions that would help mankind adopt to the new changes in the socio-economic environment caused by various effects of the recent outbreak.

Biometric driven solutions could be the key to resume socio-economic activities during as well after containment of the health crisis. The transformation that we are going through is at a global level. All industries, business organizations as well as public sectors will witness a dramatic shift in a way that will accelerate new technological trends.

Major Vertical Transformations 

Shift in trends can be witnessed in several areas, ranging from access control, time attendance systems to security systems represent a significant change in the way they are performed. As public transport facilities involve inherent infection risks, airports and metro stations need to adopt security systems that will scan body temperature of passengers and automatically restrict access upon abnormal temperature detection in order to facilitate public transport even in this dire situation.

Commercial and business activities can be resumed with the help of Touchless Biometric Systems that can perform both masked facial detection and body temperature measurement. In retail settings, devices like biometric-driven kiosks would be able to facilitate self-servicing to minimize physical contacts as much as possible.

New Economic Restoration 

Though this sudden change in the socio-economic levels is a lot to take, the drive to reopen economies will motivate the adoption of new technologies, in some form or other. Touchless biometrics can be part of the solution to support digital transformation for the present moment, and as people return to work, biometrics more broadly can help humanity get out of this present situation.

Governments are widely thinking about biometrics in their considerations of tools at their disposal to help with the health crisis and recovery. Biometrics is being seen as a crucial tool in public safety and economic growth.

ZKTeco has been closely observing the health-crisis and has taken considerable efforts in providing solutions that would address the safety and hygienic concerns associated with the outbreak. We offer solutions that provide pleasant user experience with much accurate and fast temperature measurement together with biometric authentication and masked face detection enhancing the safety of users.
