The release of our newest biometric face recognition device was one of the most memorable events of 2010, especially since our business focused on fingerprint verification for all this time. With the Face ID 2, verification is hassle-less as all you have to do is verify your attendance with a glance – no contact needed.
Previously, FingerTec’s colour terminals could contain 1,500 user templates and 12,000 transaction logs, perfect for a small to medium enterprises.

Uniquely set aside from our other biometric devices, the FingerTec TA300 is a desktop time attendance model.

The TA300, although just released this year, has risen to be one of the Top 10 biometric models sold by FingerTec.

An upgrade from the AC100 model, FingerTec AC100C was launched sometime in the second half of this year. The AC100C has a little more features than the AC100 such as full colour TFT screen, USB flashdisk port for easy data management, and 12,000 fingerprint user templates. With the AC100C, users can have more variety and choice when implementing a time attendance system in their organization.

Venezuela’s Administrative Service for Identification and Immigration demonstrates their trust in FingerTec and its system by implementing FingerTec’s solutions. As international airports are one of the busiest places in the world, every step should be taken to ensure the security of the area is never compromised. This was achieved by installing several units of Q2i to their turnstiles located in the airports. The system was to keep track of those entering and exiting the Venezuelan land. Since their initial installation in June ’10, the Venezuelan authorities have seen the promising results of FingerTec solutions, and have since placed an order for around 100 more units to completely implement the system.
