Biometric fingerprint scanning involves a process of authentication, which in turn entails matching the fingerprint data from the individual with that of the data already in the system. The data is thus compared with the record of the individual’s biometric fingerprint scan which was originally done to create a template. In addition it also involves comparison of the data on an ID card or a PIN number with the biometric fingerprint data of the individual already scanned into the system. Apart from authentication the process can also involve identification where the template of the biometric fingerprint data is compared to all the records in the system for closest match to that of the user. This type of biometric fingerprint identification is used in a one to many relationship.
One of the best fire alarm systems for modern businesses is that of the Honeywell Noti-Fire-Net. It is considered backward compatible since the older Notifier systems can work with this network. The Noti-Fire-Net networks allow for quick installation and hassle free maintenance. The infrastructure provided makes for improved accessing of information in a matter of seconds. The Honeywell ONYXWorks workstation for central control, works perfectly on the Noti-Fire-Net network. The FirstVision user-friendly touch screen interface solution works with the network, making the solution perfect for fire fighters needing to pinpoint the origin and spreading of fires at the client premise. Connected to the Noti-Fire-Net with the ONYXWorks workstation, it is possible to reduce nuisance alarms, have more control over monitoring of fires and improved access to information on a reliable network – thus one of the best fire alarm systems available for modern day businesses.
