TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
Built-in Web Server:

Each iGuard Biometric /
Smart Card Security
Appliance has a built-in Web Server
enables all the computers in
the corporate network to
directly & simultaneously
access the device using any
Internet Browser, such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer
& Netscape Navigator.
Different computer platforms
such as Apple Macintosh,
Microsoft Windows & Linux
machines can access the
device.
No additional
software is required. So
whether you are in an
airport lounge or a hotel
room, you can always check
if your employees are
already in the office or
not, and you can even
control, modify or disable
their access rights to your
office remotely via internet
connection provided your
iGuard Biometric / Smart
Card Security Appliance is
connected to an external IP
address or your network is
available through a VPN
connection that is reachable
from your location.
Capacitive Fingerprint Sensor:
Instead of using the
traditional optical scanner,
the iGuard Biometric / Smart
Card Security Appliance is the first
Fingerprint Biometrics
Security System that uses
the most advanced
Solid-state, silicon-based
Capacitive Fingerprint
Sensor.
The new fingerprint
sensor features enhanced
imaging capabilities,
electrostatic discharge (ESD)
performance and improved
ruggedness to provide
superior levels of accuracy
and reliability for
fingerprint authentication.
When a finger contacts
the iGuard Biometric / Smart
Card Security Appliance sensor surface,
the sensor measures the
capacitance at each pixel in
the 256 x 300 array in the
sensor's surface.
Differences in capacitance
correspond to the ridges,
valleys and pores that
characterize a unique
fingerprint. (Minutiae) The
new fingerprint sensor
eliminates the limitations
of other traditional
scanners, including edge
distortion, low-image
resolution, scratched
platens, misaligned optics
and bulky size. It is also
unaffected by day to day
fingerprint variations such
as cuts, swelling & dirt.
Contactless Mifare Smart Card:
With this feature, your
workforce can gain access to
the iGuard faster and
smarter, by using the
Philips Mifare Contactless
Smart Card. Each user would
have his / her own smart
card, which stores the user
information including the
name, company & branch code,
and the fingerprint
information. This feature is
specially useful during
high-traffic period, such as
during the beginning and the
end of the day, that most
employees clock in and out
for the day at almost the
same time. Additionally,
this method will also allow
you to use Multi-Factor
authentication to identify
the individual. Using
the smart card as the
statement of user identity
and as the matching medium
increases security and
lowers matching time on the
server thus improving speed
and performance.
Secure Access:
Network integrity and
security are ensured via SSL
network encryption
(optional).
Built-in Database Server:
The built-in Database
Server allows obtaining the
employee information and the
access & attendance records
easily, thus cutting the
processing time for jobs
like payroll calculation
from days to minutes. All
the information is real-time
information, instead of
week-old or day-old data. In
contrast, other systems must
use dedicated computers
running special proprietary
software to retrieve the
information, and usually
dedicated persons are
required to perform the
jobs.
Patented Technologies:
As a company dedicated to
innovation, design and
engineering, Lucky
Technology obtained the US
patent for the iGuard
Biometric / Smart Card
Security Appliance's
built-in web-interface in 2003 (US
patent number 6,643,779).
Our "pursuit of perfection"
makes it possible for you to
have the leading-edge
technology of the iGuard
Biometric / Smart Card
Security Appliance in security and
time-attendance systems ---
easily.
Master/Slave Unit configuration:
Multiple iGuard Biometric
/ Smart Card Security
Appliances can
be setup as a Master/Slave
network with up to a 20,000
user capability. Under this
configuration, one iGuard
Biometric / Smart Card
Security Appliance or the
iGuard Super Master
would be assigned the role as the
Master device, and all other
iGuard Biometric / Smart
Card Security Appliances
are configured as slave
devices.
When a user enroll in any
one of these iGuard units,
his / her user information,
including the fingerprint
information, would be
replicated to all other
iGuard units in the same
master / slave network, so
the same user does not need
to enroll multiple times in
order to have the access
rights to all these units.
