Expressing
thoughts on how choosing the biometrics technology for attendance and
access control today, will be a consequential action for a developing
tomorrow.
Ever
since we stepped into the world of digitalization, it never remained
an option but an essential asset for us. Digitalization being a
mother have several verticals under it and biometrics technology is
one of the most prominent among others.
We
are not here to discuss the merits and de-merits over it but, we will
try to throw light on how this technology has proved to be a winner
in the past, how it is assisting the world in various fields in
present days, and how it will bring the shining badges in the future.
HOW
WE ARE MOVING TOWARDS BIOMETRIC ATTENDANCE:
Talking
about our principal domain, the biometric attendance system is not a
new name in the field and came into general operations in the early
‘90s.
Although
biometrics technology and its various authentication factors were in
the existence as well as in practice but, fingerprint authentication
was the first vector to came out for the common masses.
Biometric
attendance system with fingerprint, RFID, and proximity card came out
with huge success in the market and due to this unique yet safest
identification feature, it started becoming the first and the
foremost choice of the Corporate.
But
why the world was choosing to move over to Biometric attendance?
Let’s
hear it from an example; if you being the head of an organization
wants to closely monitor the in and out of your office employees
while calculating there genuine and total manpower hours and
productivity, wouldn’t you require an authentic and trustworthy
mechanism for the same?
Biometric
fingerprint reader became one such trusted name with no chances of a
security breach.
HOW
BIOMETRICS
IS
PROVING
TO
BE
A
SAVIOUR:
The
biggest testimony that reflects the biometrics has entered in every
life starts from the digital id’s followed by their biometrics
credentials as a security measure in different verticals.
And
to get a clear picture of it, the statistics would be of great
importance which are:
More
than 86% of the people rely on biometrics and its authentication
globally
-
Approx.
60% of the smartphone applications verify the users through
biometrics
-
More
than 76% of the people rely on fingerprint verification, 14% on
facial recognition and rest on other forms of biometric
authentication
-
More
than 80% of the Corporate rely on biometric authentication for
attendance and 54% has installed access control systems at their
workplace
-
More
than 82% of the workplace’s attendance, payroll, overtime, and
other activiites are being calculated with the help of HR software
synchronized with biometric attendance machine
Let’s
have a look at the global statistical figures on how biometrics technology has emerged through years and what the market predicts
for it:
The
global biometric technologies market revenue from 2018 to 2027
clearly shows what kind of a steady growth the biometrics market have
been and where it will be heading towards in the coming years.
Talking
about the contactless biometrics technology market size, the graph
clearly shows a steady growth in the years 2019-2020. just after the
pandemic, contactless biometrics market will be at a boom and is
estimated to reach a whooping figure of 30.15 Billion US Dollars
from 8.25 Billion Dollars.
What’s
Next In Biometrics:
The
world was slowly unlocking the latest trends of biometrics but the
sudden attack of COVID-19 has pushed us to quickly shift over the
contactless biometrics. We were not ready for this unplanned move and
all the predictions of the movement from contact to contactless were
left in the cold bags.
To
bring ahead every workplace through biometrics and to make every
other corporate future-ready, facial recognition is leading the way
in biometrics technology.
Native
manufacturers are building their path in developing and designing
facial recognition attendance and access control machine. With the
in-house Research & Development team, own manufacturing unit and
customer support facility, the companies are extending adequate
support to the Make in India, and Vocal for Local movement and has
proved that the indigenous companies are affluent in providing 100%
generic and precise attendance and access control solutions.
