ZKAccess Releases FV 350 Multi-biometric Finger Vein and Fingerprint Access Control Reader

ZKAccess, a provider of biometric and RFID security solutions, is pleased to announce the release of its FV 350, a multi-biometric finger vein and fingerprint recognition access control reader. FV 350 is uniquely capable of capturing and processing both finger vein and fingerprint biometric data simultaneously. Ergonomic, intuitive and highly secure, FV 350 is leading the way to a new era of enhanced security with biometrics.

Enrollment and authentication is fast and easy. In one quick step, authorized users simply press their finger on FV 350’s combination finger print/vein sensor. The FV 350 will then subsequently illuminate the user's finger vein pattern and capture both their finger vein and fingerprint minutiae points. FV 350 then converts the unique points into biometric templates. The vein and fingerprint templates are then stored in the FV 350 database for subsequent identification and verification.

Key FV 350 features include an intuitive graphical user interface and touch screen display for a rich user experience, and advanced access control functions based on time zones, groups and unlock combinations. The FV 350 can store up to 1000 vein and 1000 fingerprints and identify users in less than two seconds. Complete access control functionality is built into the FV 350. It can operate with or without a dedicated computer or access control panel. Access credentials are flexible since FV 350 supports multi-factor authentication. A user can authenticate with a single (or combination) finger vein, fingerprint and/or password.

"Adding biometric protection to some or all of a customer’s doors is simple, because ZKAccess biometric readers work with the customer’s existing panels and software," noted Larry Reed, CEO, ZKAccess. "Our solutions safeguard their previous security investment while enhancing it with new, highly reliable biometric technologies."

It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
