BioCard combines
the highly successful silicon Finger Print sensor with a smart card
reader to achieve ultra-secure authentication. It is fully integrated
Finger Print -based biometric subsystem, combining Finger Print sensing and
algorithm processing in a single, compact device.
All
biometric algorithm processing is carried out in a custom chip
integrated at the back of the silicon Finger Print sensor.
BioCard Standard features:
§ Integrated
Finger Print scanner/smart card reader

Why BioCard
1. BioCard
uses two different technologies:
a. EDK for Finger Print System
b. SDK
for Card Reader System
2. Both
technologies are embedded together programmatically.
3. Finger Prints
are being stored inside the Cards.
4. During
Verification process Fresh image is taken from the sensor and compared
with the one stored in Card only, allowing 1:1 Verification.
5. With
1:1 verification number of users can be as much as Billions and still
verification speed will be under 1 second.
6. BioCard
allows users to carry their Data with them rather than having a need to
leave their Finger Print data on PCs making it a lot more securer way of
using Finger Prints.
Working of Credit Cards Vs BioCard
Behind the Scene Process:
1. User
uses a card at an establishment to purchase a product or service…
2. Card
is swiped on a swipe-machine.
3. The
swipe machine is connected to a central computer belonging to the
network, which, in turn, is connected to all issuing banks.
4. The
system verifies with your issuing bank whether you have sufficient
credit to cover the purchase in a few seconds and approves or reject the
transaction
5. As
soon as approval comes through, you are asked to sign the charge slip.
6. The
merchant then verifies your signature with the one at the back of the
card. (SECURITY LEVELS)
7. The
charge slip is then forwarded to the acquiring bank
8. Which
in turn settles the transaction with the merchant
9. The
issuing bank also proceeds to bill you for payment as per the
cardholder agreement.
10. The
acquiring bank will settle the transaction with your issuing bank
through the network.
Behind the Scene Process:
1. User uses a BioCard at an establishment to
purchase a product or service…
2. BioCard is placed in the Finger Print BioCard
reader, user is asked to place his/her registered finger onto the
reader.
3. Reader takes a live image of the finger and
compares it with the one stored in the BioCard, If matching result is YES, it will start the next process,
otherwise transaction will stop…
4. The reader is connected to a central computer
belonging to the network, which, in turn, is connected to all issuing
banks.
5. The system verifies with user’s issuing bank
whether you have sufficient credit to cover the purchase in a few
seconds and approves or reject the transaction
6. As soon as approval comes through, Transaction
is finished
7. The charge slip is then forwarded to the
acquiring bank
8. Which in turn settles the transaction with the
merchant
9. The issuing bank also proceeds to bill you for
payment as per the cardholder agreement.
10. The acquiring bank will settle the transaction
with your issuing bank through the network.
