What is Palm Scanning Technology?
Palm scanning typically refers to "palm vein recognition" - a sophisticated biometric technology that captures internal vein patterns for secure identification
Palm Vein Recognition Technology
Palm vein recognition uses near-infrared imaging to capture the unique vein distribution patterns inside the palm. The system creates a digital template from these internal vascular structures and uses it for highly accurate biometric comparison and identification.
Palm Vein Scanning Technology in BioWavePass
RGB Imaging (Surface Layer)
- Captures the visible palm texture, lines, and shape to help with positioning, anti-spoofing, and overall image quality.
- FRR@FAR: 1.002%@1e-6
Infrared Vein Imaging (Sub-Surface Layer)
- Detects the unique palm vein pattern beneath the skin, which cannot be seen by the human eye and is extremely difficult to replicate.
- FRR@FAR: 1.52%@1e-6
Dual-Mode Fusion (RGB + IR)
- Combines surface and sub-surface biometric features to improve accuracy, speed, and stability across different lighting and usage environments, ensuring secure and reliable authentication.
- Combined FRR@FAR: one in a hundred billion
How It Works- Palm Vein Scanning Technology Process
Understanding the deployment logic and technical workflow for procurement and project managers
Hand Positioning
The user places their palm above the scanner. The RGB camera assists with accurate positioning and captures the visible palm surface to support anti-spoofing.
Vein Pattern Capture (Infrared Imaging)
An infrared sensor scans beneath the skin to detect the unique palm vein pattern formed by deoxygenated blood absorbing infrared light.
Feature Extraction
The system converts the captured palm vein image into encrypted biometric feature data. Only mathematical feature points are used for identity matching.
Matching and Verification
The live feature data is compared with the enrolled template to confirm identity with high accuracy and fast response time.
Secure Storage
All palm vein data is AES-256 encrypted and stored only on the customer’s servers. BioWavePass does not manage any data. Transmission is SSL secured, and cloud storage uses AES-256 CBC with encryption on write and decryption on read.
Why Choose Palm Vein Scanning Technology
Transform security with measurable advantages that deliver real business value and procurement confidence
High Security and Accuracy
Palm vein patterns are internal to the human body and invisible to the naked eye, making them extremely difficult to copy or forge. Dual-mode RGB + IR imaging further enhances matching accuracy and reliability.
Contactless and Hygienic
Users simply hold their hand above the device without physical contact. This enables clean, comfortable, and touch-free authentication, ideal for healthcare, banking, retail, and public environments.
Stable and Consistent
Palm vein patterns remain stable throughout a person’s lifetime and are far less affected by surface conditions such as dirt, dryness, sweat, or minor skin damage.
Fast User Experience
Advanced image processing and AI-based matching deliver rapid identity verification while maintaining extremely low false acceptance and false rejection rates.
Privacy and Data Protection
All palm vein data is AES-256 encrypted and stored only on the customer’s servers. BioWavePass does not manage any data. Transmission is SSL secured, and cloud storage uses AES-256 CBC with encryption on write and decryption on read.
Device-Free and Effortless Authentication
No phone, passwords, or physical cards are required. Users simply wave their palm to verify their e-wallet or ID, enabling a seamless, secure, and contactless experience.
