World record in fingerprint identification: DERMALOG correctly identifies 129 million fingerprints in one second |
|
Hamburg, November 14, 2011 (APA/OTS) - DERMALOG Identification
Systems GmbH is Germany's largest biometrics manufacturer, and has
set a new world record in the identification of fingerprints. The
new system, known as "DERMALOG Next Generation AFIS", is capable of
correctly identifying the ten fingerprints of one individual within
a second from a database of more than 129 million fingerprints. The
renowned international SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS has tested the product
and acknowledged that this combination of speed and accuracy is
unique throughout the world. |
Every fingerprint is unique and so is the new Automated Fingerprint
Identification System (AFIS) from the biometrics manufacturer
DERMALOG. It has achieved a new world record in the identification
of fingerprints. The newly developed "DERMALOG Next Generation AFIS"
proved its unique speed and accuracy at the test recently conducted
by SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS. Using an LF10 DERMALOG fingerprint
livescanner, the ten fingerprints of one person were scanned and
compared with a database of 100 million fingerprints representing 10
million people, each having ten fingerprints. This corresponds to
the approximate population of Portugal or the Czech Republic, for
example. From within this huge data pool, the ten scanned
fingerprints were correctly identified within just 0.89 seconds on a
standard blade server with twelve cores making it a world record
without compromising the FAR and FRR rates.
The aim of the test was to prove that the DERMALOG system sacrificed
none of its accuracy even when working at extremely high speed. The
testers at SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS have now confirmed that DERMALOG
can achieve a quality of results never seen before in a search
matching speed which is quite unique throughout the world involving
the examination of 129,296,050 fingerprints per second on a blade
server with 12 cores, which today is now a standard system. The new
software is not only accurate and fast but also easy to install and
requires no special hardware. It is suitable for standard PCs and
standard blade servers such as are typically used today for data
processing. This achievement has now set a new standard for speed
and accuracy in fingerprint identification.
Günther Mull, founder and Managing Director at DERMALOG, is proud of
the world record. "The result shows how accurately and fast our new
software works," he says. "During the test everyone was identified
correctly. There were no errors. And so our "Next Generation AFIS"
has now set a new standard for speed and accuracy in fingerprint
identification. The system is especially designed for use in
conjunction with large-scale databases such as used at border
checkpoints. That saves on long waiting times and enables speedy
processing, with no errors in a second."
Dr. Bernd Grabe from SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS commented on the test
results saying "As the speed of fingerprint searching increases, the
accuracy of the results is often reduced. But no loss in quality was
observed with the DERMALOG Next Generation AFIS despite its
extremely high speed. And what is more it uses standard hardware."
The new "DERMALOG Next Generation AFIS" software will be on show at
the CARTES trade fair in Paris from 15th to 17th November 2011, and
is available now for all existing and new DERMALOG customers.
DERMALOG Identification Systems GmbH, based in Hamburg, is the
largest German biometrics manufacturer and one of the world leaders
in biometrics. It has a high level team of scientists and IT
knowledge team working continuously on new innovative products. Its
product range includes highly advanced biometric border checkpoint
systems, secure biometric ID cards, and the new "FingerPayment"
system. The main sales markets are Germany, Europe, Latin America,
the Middle East and Asia.
DERMALOG has supplied more than 20,000 fingerprint scanners to the
national registration offices in Germany for the new electronic
passports, ID cards and permanent resident´s cards, and has also
supplied more than 50,000 finger scanners to national authorities in
over 40 countries. The company has installed its AFIS (Automatic
Fingerprint Identification System) at 60 government authorities
throughout the world - they mostly use them to identify false or
duplicated identities before issuing ID cards or passports. DERMALOG
is also the technical partner in the REWE Group's project for fast,
secure payment by fingerprint, and the partner of Wincor-Nixdorf in
fitting cash machines, ATMs with finger scanners ("Finger instead of
PIN number"). For further information, please visit the website
