Biometric Access Control and Door Security

While we are often resistant to acknowledging it, the world of today is not safe. Our children face many more threats to their health and safety than we or our parents ever did. Educational institutions recognize this threat and are starting to adopt biometric identification systems to protect the students under their care. A growing trend among kindergarten to K12, biometric access control devices are being used to grant access to classrooms, and colleges and universities are deploying similar systems for dormitories and recreational facilities.

With LES-enabled biometric devices, educational institutes can protect students with a fool-proof, user-friendly system to verify identity. Plus, through streamlining processes like meal tickets and library cards, LES-enabled fingerprint scanners reduce administrative cost and the hassle of issuing cards while eliminating the probability that a student will lose or share his/her ID token.

Integrated Biometrics LES Technology allows educational facilities to implement a simple, user-friendly biometric solution that is durable – guaranteed up to a million touches; secure – only registering an image when moving electrons are detected, making it immune to spoofing techniques; and accurate – working in both direct and indirect sunlight, a large, curved surface provides a larger template for image generation and reduces distortion that results from flat optical and silicon sensors.
