Technology Explained
The human palm is a complex set of skin lines and creases that is unique enough to identify an individual
When a palm is placed in front of a camera from a distance of around six inches (15 cm) even a low-end camera such as ones already installed in phones, laptops and ATMs can capture the palm skin in great detail
Once captured the biometrics pipeline is a two stage process: - The PalmID® Capture Module uses sophisticated machine vision techniques to turn the RGB video input stream into an authentication-ready palm image. - The PalmID® Matching Module matches in real time the captured palm image against stored references. This process uses proprietary algorithms extensively tested against large datasets of palm images that ensure no false positives. Depending on the security model required, this process can be run on a remote server or locally
Use Cases
PalmID® meets the authentication needs for a wide range of markets, and is a high-performance solution for nearly any application with a standard camera. Among the many markets where PalmID is effective are:
Company
PalmID® benefits from an enormous market opportunity: with 600 million entry-level phones, 700 million desktops, laptops and tablets and 105 million AR/VR products devices in users' hands, the camera enabled device market is wide open for adopting palm based biometrics today. With an addition, 40 billion online transactions take place each year the need for enhanced security will continue to grow dramatically in next five years.
PalmID® is supported by a team with decades of experience in computer vision and biometrics.

Redrock Biometrics: Robust Security in the Palm of Your Hand.
Palm biometrics is a secure, user-friendly authentication technology, with powerful security advantages for devices ranging from smartphones to tablets to laptops to virtual reality headsets.
Why palm-based authentication?
Biometric authentication – reading the user's unique physical features to allow access to electronic devices ranging from smartphones to tablets to Smart TVs to AR/VR headsets and beyond – is the wave of the future, and no physical gesture is easier or more natural than a wave of the hand.
No new hardware required
Basic palm-based authentication is one of the easiest to integrate and use authentication systems available today, and it works on any camera-equipped device – no new hardware required. Giving a device with a camera adding palm-reading capability is simple a matter of installing software.
The leader in palm-based authentication
Redrock Biometrics is the leader in palm-based authentication technology. Our patented solution enables any camera-equipped device to read the user's unique palm print – even under low-light conditions (the light from as little as a cellphone screen is enough to capture an accurate palm image)
The security level can be strengthened even more on devices with higher-resolution RGB cameras with adaptive focus (phone-back camera). A combination of RGB and IR cameras, such as Windows Hello cameras on laptops, can be integrated for further layers of security.
