The Present and Future of Finger Vein Recognition Technology (Electronics Industry Procurement) [Copy link]

On September 20, 2017, a supermarket in Brunel University in the UK announced that it has taken the lead in supporting vein recognition payment. This payment method is similar to the currently popular fingerprint payment. Customers only need to place their fingers on the scanner to complete the payment within one second. At present, thousands of students have used this technology. It is reported that the technology provider is Sthaler, an identity recognition technology developer established in the UK in 2012. Its founder Nicholas
  Dryden founded a big data analysis platform development company Xtaster in 2003.
  If you go back ten years ago, you must not imagine that one day people can go out without a wallet, but just a mobile phone. Ten years ago, mobile phones were only used for calls, but now they have many functions. You can pay with your fingerprint through your mobile phone, even if you go to the street to buy some snacks. It can be said to be very convenient.
  Recently, a commercial bank in Zhejiang Province launched the first batch of smart ATMs that apply "finger vein biometric recognition technology". In the future, you don't need to bring a bank card to handle business.
  What is finger vein recognition?
  Finger vein recognition is to identify veins through the hemoglobin in the finger veins, which has the characteristic of absorbing near-infrared light. An infrared camera is used to take pictures of the finger under near-infrared irradiation, and the grayscale image of the blood vessels inside the finger is collected. Then, multiple processing processes such as enhancement, filtering, normalization and feature extraction are performed.
  It is different from fingerprint recognition, face recognition and iris recognition in that it recognizes the information inside the living body as a feature, and is defined as the second generation of biometrics. Its advantage is that it is not affected by damage, oil pollution, sweating, callousing, etc. on the surface of the body. In terms of security, finger vein recognition does not require full contact and will not leave traces like fingerprints. In addition, the internal information is not as easy to copy as face recognition. Therefore, it has not been cracked yet. Even if it is capable of being cracked in the future, it will be very difficult to copy the entire finger vein model in terms of technology and cost. Is there
  still a long way to go
  for finger vein recognition? The application of finger vein payment and finger vein locks, as well as the introduction of domestic finger vein recognition technical specifications, all indicate that finger vein recognition technology has ushered in a new development period. So, can it become as popular as face recognition and iris recognition? In my opinion, it is still a matter of time. On the one hand, the theoretical basis of finger vein recognition technology needs to be improved. Although it is considered to be long-term and stable, whether it will not change with age remains to be verified; on the other hand, the basic recognition equipment of finger vein recognition technology is still relatively expensive, which is an obstacle to its full promotion and use. Following the development path of fingerprint recognition, face recognition and iris recognition, finger vein recognition technology is still in its infancy and has a long way to go in the future.
  The author believes that compared with fingerprint recognition, vein recognition is undoubtedly much more convenient. In the future, you don’t have to worry about forgetting to bring your mobile phone. Just bring your fingers. You don’t have to worry about the failure of fingerprint recognition after your fingers are dirty. After all, veins don’t change. And this is safer, and you don’t have to worry about others impersonating your fingerprints. It seems that this technology is very tempting. I don’t know when this technology can be used on a large scale. Anyway, the author is looking forward to that day.

Mobile phones will soon be phased out in large numbers! (Not completely), nowadays people often carry their mobile phones with them just for payment. Say goodbye to those landline charges, overcharges, etc.
