How does the Biometric Attendance System work?


The daily tasks of most businesses are focused on increasing productivity, team building and finding ways to increase sales and NOT managing employee attendance. Tracking employee attendance is a seemingly easy task, but it can and does get complicated, especially when you factor in late arrivals, high absenteeism rates and missed entries.


This can easily tie up your HR department which would be better engaged in more business-related tasks. This is where a biometric system can help your business. With the growing need for more accountability and transparency, biometric systems and their related software are making big gains in many industries.


What is biometric technology? ‘’Biometrics’ is a term that refers to the examination of human biological characteristics. When combined with identification technology and software, it is used for purposes of security and identification. Biometric finger scanning in particular is a popular type of biometric system.


How does a finger biometric attendance software work? As the name implies, this software is used to track employee attendance. Traditional attendance systems include card swiping and entering pins and passwords. With fingerprint biometrics attendance system however the front of your finger will be scanned. The scanner will capture the image of your finger print. It will then compare it to the image it has stored in its database. If there is a match, the scan is successful and the employee will be registered as “clocked in�.


Why is a fingerprint used in biometric system? Each finger of every person has a specific set of characteristics and patterns. No single finger print is similar. Every time your finger print is scanned, it is converted into a binary code for the purposes of verification. This algorithm cannot be converted into an image making it impossible for anyone to duplicate your prints. After “reading� your print, the biometric attendance keeping will attempt to match the scanned pattern to prescanned images.


Is the fingerprint the only type of biometric measure used? No, other measures are used as well. These are divided into physiological and behavioural. Physiological biometrics include fingerprints, face, hand geometry, retina, signature, vein, voice and DNA. Behavioural biometrics include how a person walks and brain wave signalling.

A biometrics attendance software can help companies keep an accurate record of employee attendance, saving valuable time and money.
