Giger is perhaps best-known as the mastermind behind the set design for science fiction films like Alien <\/em>and Prometheus<\/em>; his trademark style can best be described as \u201cbiomechanical<\/strong>\u201d, representing the interconnected relationship between man and machine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

While Mr Giger perhaps paints rather a bleak picture of this relationship, depicting it as cold and even dangerous, there is something very positive about marrying biology and technology<\/strong>, namely its benefits to security<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This is most evident in the division of access control known as biometrics<\/strong>, being the identification of humans by their characteristics or traits.\u00a0 Biometric authentication has (quite literally, in some instances) opened many doors for those within the security industry by \u00a0providing arguably the only means of controlling access that cannot be copied, cloned or circumvented in any way.\u00a0 It does this by using the human body itself as access tag.<\/p>\n

One major benefit of incorporating biometrics, and fingerprint authentication<\/strong> in particular, into your security infrastructure is that the access device (being the finger) cannot be misplaced or stolen as is often the case with loose tags.\u00a0 Authentication occurs by placing a finger onto a small glass \u201cwindow\u201d on the reader, which then scans it and matches it to the records stored in memory, granting access based on whether or not a record is found.<\/p>\n

CENTURION is an authorised distributor of the award-winning Virdi range<\/a><\/strong> of biometric readers.\u00a0 Virdi uses state-of-the-art fingerprint recognition and RFID technology<\/strong> to provide an access control system boasting superior functionality as well as dependability.
