Vein Pattern Recognition 'A Privacy-Enhancing Biometric'

Biometric technologies vary in capability, performance, and reliability. One of the most promising emerging technologies, vein pattern recognition (VPR) is more accurate than many other biometric methods, offers greater resistance to spoofing, and focuses on people. Exploring privacy issues and the general concept of personal identity, this book delves into real-world biometrics applications and discusses the emergence of this reliable but underutilized technology. The author, an industry veteran, presents the myriad applications of VPA technology and its current implementations—including its widespread use in the Japanese banking industry for accessing cardholder accounts.
