Dave Crawshay-Hall from Brand New Technologies, a Lumidigm partner, was interviewed for an article entitled “Pointing a finger at mine security”.
“Some of the environmental factors that could influence the quality of fingerprint sensing include dry, wet or damaged fingers, poor contact between the finger and the sensor and bright ambient light,” says Crawshay-Hall. “These environmental factors are particularly valid in a mining environment where dirty, damaged and chafed fingers are encountered regularly. High throughput and low false readings are also necessary, as a mine can have thousands of readings a day.”
