The attached document shows why IDENCOM, a German designer & manufacturer of a patented reader, has a superior biometric reader which has a FFR (False Rejection Rate) of ONE in ONE MILLION (documented with the German VdS Agency). Beside that, the reader can be used as a stand-alone unit, with TCP/IP, RS-485, or the WIEGAND protocol - even simultaneously.

1. Why IDENCOM has a better Biometric Fingerprint Reader Product:
 We use only robust thermal swipe sensors, measuring the finger’s skin specific
temperature, without problem with latent finger (like: optic or CMOS area
fingerprint sensor , manipulation with a fake finger is possible there)
With Idencom‘s swipe sensors as the major part in the reader, the user leaves no
residual fingerprint patterms on the sensor surface after the use, because the actual
sensor is only a narrow strip for swiping the finger across.
Even the Apple iPhone with an area fingerprint sensor has big problem with the
security issue, as mentioned in these articles below:
http://www.cnet.com/news/iphone-5s-touch-id-hacked-by-fake-fingerprints/
http://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2013/ccc-breaks-apple-touchid
 The accurate Fingerprint Reliability (FAR: false acceptance rate) is laboratory-
confirmed and approved. The German VdS institution has attested the IDENCOM
BioKey Security level as "better than 1 in 1 million" (a first in the world!)
http://www.hartmann-tresore.com/en/sonderseiten/biometric-locking-system.html
 It is so reliable for the first time in bringing the so-called false rejection rate (FRR,
when an authorised finger is rejected) of biometric recognition to almost "zero".
The error rate (FRR) is minimized to such a great extent that the user has practically no
need to accept any restrictions to the fingerprint system in daily use.
Therefore, the IDENCOM BioKey clearly stands out from the current market standard.
A stored finger works independently of external influences!

2. This qualifies IDENCOM BioKey® in particular for outdoor use on doors, gates, access
control points, which are exposed to stronger weather conditions (IP Class 65, 100%
water proof).
Together with low FRR and FAR: The IDENCOM BioKey® offers comfortable
handling and operation and very high security standards all in one!
 The completely new approach: to offer biometric products for manufacturers and
industry with a modular design and a diversity of Interfaces, (e.g. RS485, TCP/IP,
Wiegand, even simultaneously): "cost effective, high quality and time-to-market"
as all-in-one.
 The newly developed BioKey Technology was already honoured with 8 (!) high-
ranking national and international commendations (Innovation, engineering,
Technology and Product Design) after its release to the market in the year 2010,
including the Industriepreis 2011 as Category Winner in the area of “Electrical
Technology” at the world’s largest industrial trade fair, the “Hannover Messe” and re-
nominated for the “iF Product Design Award 2011” and "Reddot 2012".
