More Productive And Informed Workforce
ATM-style kiosk system communication panel displays relevant data to employees. This verification process takes about a second at the point of entry.  This data is then transferred to management to further enhance communications.
What is Hand Geometry?
Hand geometry measures the size and shape of a person’s hand, including length, width, thickness, and surface area to verify the person’s identity. In conjunction with a PIN number or the swipe of a card, the enrolled individual can punch in for work. Hand readers do not read fingerprints or palm prints.
“Buddy Punching”, i.e. punching in for someone else, is eliminated since credentials cannot be duplicated
Hand geometry accurately identifies the user even if his or her hand is dirty, wet or injured, or if the device is damp, dusty or dirty
No fingerprint or palm print is stored in the device
Data is not shared with any outside agencies or companies
Verification takes place in about one second
Since the “credential” cannot be lost or stolen there is no cost to replace lost, damaged or stolen cards
