The success of a biometric system often depends on choosing the right biometric modality, but it isn’t easy. Careful research that includes rigorous comparisons of modality strengths and weaknesses is an important element to help select the right hardware. Factors to consider in the comparison may include specifications, convenience, usability, acceptability, effectiveness, and budget.

5 Factors to Consider in Choosing the Best Biometric Modality m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
Choosing the Best Biometric Modality • The success of a biometric system often depends on choosing the right biometric modality, but it isn’t easy. Careful research that includes rigorous comparisons of modality strengths and weaknesses is an important element to help select the right hardware. m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
Factors to consider in the comparison • Specifications • Convenience • Usability • Acceptability • Effectiveness • Budget m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
1. Accuracy • Accuracy is one of the most important aspects to assess when choosing a biometric modality. It is based on several criteria including error rate, False Acceptance Rate (FAR), identification rate, False Rejection Rate (FRR) and additional biometric system standards. m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
2. Anti-Spoofing Capabilities • As biometric recognition systems become more widespread, strong anti-spoofing protection is a must have capability for the right biometric modality. m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
3. Acceptability • User acceptance is the linchpin of biometric identification management deployment success. Understanding which modalities are acceptable versus those that may cause user acceptance issues is important. m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
4. Cost Effectiveness • Depending on the underlying technology and hardware characteristics, certain modalities may be more cost effective than others. It’s important to recognize that an initial investment in biometrics can and is quite often recouped in a short amount of time to achieve fast return on investment (ROI). m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
5. Hygiene • Contact dependent biometric hardware is an important factor to consider before making an investment. Many new deployments in industries that pay close attention to infection control prefer to use contactless biometric modalities for hygienic reasons. m2sys.com sales@m2sys.com
