Something I found Interesting "NEC has 59% of the world-wide market of AFIS for police organizations," I wonder how it stands today.
I apologize for the format. (translated using the link David supplied)
In English:
System of Identification of Digital Tracks.
From the NEC hand PID arrived at Argentina (Positive Identification), the latest in technology of recognition of digital track.
Two basic systems of NEC of identification of digital tracks exist, these are the AFIS21 and the PID.
The AFIS21 (Automated Fingerprint Identification System or Automatic System of Identification of digital tracks) is a used equipment to handle great volumes of information.
Grandes volumenes of information means million registered people, each one with its ten tracks of the stored fingers. This implies to have a considerable equipment, which brings prepared a cost quite high associate; for these reasons, this equipment is used in governmental applications.
A typical example of these systems is the used one by the police organisms. In this system, a detective obtains a track in the place of the crime and she solicits to him that she is identified to that belongs. The AFIS21 begins then a high speed search by all their data base, when finalizing sample a listing of the possible people and the probabilities of corresponding to that track. In this application, an equipment is necessary that verifies at high speed due to the size of the file of tracks of tracks and to the rapidity whereupon answers are
required.
With regard to criminology, NEC has 59% of the world-wide market of AFIS for police organizations, including among others to the Department of Police of Los Angeles and San Francisco in the United States, the National Police of Indonesia, Spain, Sweden, and the National Agency of Police of Japan.
An interesting implementation is system WIN, implemented by NEC that serves to different departments from police of the United States, receiving to them by its use a monthly canon that is distributed between the different states.
What is what differentiates to NEC of the rest of the competitors. The most obvious answer would be to say than to have 59% of the market it speaks by itself with regard to answer capacity, commitment with desarrolos futures of the product, experience and reliability.
But also they exist characteristic precise that differentiates to us from the rest. One of them is the algorithm used commonly in the identification of the digital tracks: the points of bifurcation and completion of the digital lines are identified with which a map is armed of points that is recorded like registry. The system NEC is only that in addition uses the concept " Relation ", the this is to also take into account the amount from lines that happen between those points This gives to a consistency and unique security him in the market.
The PID (Positive IDentification or Positive Identificacio'n) is based on a PC architecture. This enormously reduces the costs in comparison with the great servers whom the AFIS21 needs.
When the PID is used? When the amount of filed registries is small or when what is required it is not an identification of the track to know to whom it belongs but that it has the track and the name of the person and it is wanted to verify his identity.
This has important applications in different markets:
1. - Social Programs. A good possibility would be to control the payment of the unemployment insurance, retirement or other benefits. Of this form they would be avoided that these benefits are received by people who do not correspond and the duplications or recently known cases decuplicaciones in the collection would be eliminated.
2 Prisons. A system PID in each access can be placed that is desired to control. Thus the control of the prisoners would be made agile and improved who leave the ends week, the controls of entrance and exit to the patios, etc. In addition, it would be integrated with a software that regulates the schedules of the prisoners giving a value added to the access control.
3 Medicine. The main users will be the important private centers. In order to identify in the consultations the identity of the patient a PID can be used, if the patient arrives in an emergency or in unconsciousness state it is possible to be used a AFIS and to be verified immediately that is and what pathologies have.
4 Registry of conductor. With a portable equipment it is obtained that a patrol craft verifies the identity of the carrier of the registry of the conductor, as well as its antecedents of infractions.
5 Access to automatic tellers. It replaces or it complements to I cosay of identification that is entered at the moment.
6 Control of access. Control of access in places of high security; for example the control of access of the safe-deposit box of a bank, where one is due to verify without place to mistakes that the person is the one who claims to be. If a person arrives who has her key and their documents will be able to confuse to a guard of nowadays, but it will not be able to deceive a guard equipped with a PID of NEC.
The new development that presents/displays east system is that the algorithms implemented in the PID are not simple lines of code that identify digital tracks more or less. The interesting thing is that algorithms are used such that the used ones by equipment AFIS21. And these are the algorithms proven and chosen by 59% of the world-wide police.
NEC, to lider world-wide in AFIS for police, was committed to remove to the market equipment based on PC, with the condition of which these offer the same security that was worth prestige to him in greater equipment, and it did it.
In Spanish:
Sistema de Identificaci¢n de Huellas Digitales.
De la mano de NEC lleg¢ a la Argentina el PID (Positive Identification), lo £ltimo en tecnolog¡a de
reconocimiento de huella digital.
Existen dos sistemas b sicos de NEC de identificaci¢n de huellas digitales, estos son el AFIS21 y el PID.
El AFIS21 (Automated Fingerprint Identification System o Sistema Autom tico de
Identificaci¢n de huellas digitales) es un equipo usado para manejar grandes vol£menes de
informaci¢n.
Grandes volumenes de informaci¢n significa millones de personas registradas, cada una con
sus diez huellas de los dedos de las manos almacenados. Esto implica un poseer un
equipamiento considerable, lo que trae aparejado un costo asociado bastante alto; por estas
razones, este equipo se utiliza en aplicaciones gubernamentales.
Un ejemplo t¡pico de estos sistemas es el usado por los organismos policiales. En este sistema,
un detective consigue una huella en el lugar del crimen y le solicita que se identifique a quien
pertenece. El AFIS21 comienza entonces una b£squeda ultrarr pida por toda su base de datos, al finalizar muestra un listado
de las posibles personas y las probabilidades de corresponder a esa huella. En esta aplicaci¢n, es necesario un equipo que
verifique a alta velocidad debido al tama¤o del archivo de huellas de huellas y a la rapidez con que se requieren respuestas.
En lo que respecta a criminolog¡a, NEC posee el 59% del mercado mundial de AFIS para organizaciones policiales,
incluyendo entre otros al Departamento de Polic¡a de Los Angeles y San Francisco en Estados Unidos, la Polic¡a Nacional de
Indonesia, Espa¤a, Suecia, y la Agencia Nacional de Polic¡as de Jap¢n.
Una interesante implementaci¢n es el sistema WIN, implementado por NEC que presta servicios a diferentes departamentos
de polic¡a de Estados Unidos, cobr ndoles por su utilizaci¢n un canon mensual que es repartido entre los diferentes estados.
Qu‚ es lo que diferencia a NEC del resto de los competidores?. La respuesta m s obvia ser¡a decir que tener el 59% del
mercado habla por s¡ solo en lo que respecta a capacidad de respuesta, compromiso con futuros desarrolos del producto,
experiencia y confiabilidad.
Pero tambi‚n existen caracter¡sticas puntuales que nos diferencian del resto. Una de
ellas es el algoritmo usado com£nmente en la identificaci¢n de las huellas dactilares: se
identifican los puntos de bifurcaci¢n y terminaci¢n de las l¡neas dactilares con lo que se arma
un mapa de puntos que es grabado como registro. El sistema NEC es el £nico que adem s
utiliza el concepto "Relation", esto es tomar en cuenta tambi‚n la cantidad de l¡neas que
pasan entre esos puntos. Esto le da una consistencia y seguridad £nica en el mercado.
El PID (Positive IDentification o Identificaci¢n Positiva) se basa en una arquitectura de PC. Esto reduce los costos
enormemente en comparaci¢n con los grandes servidores que necesita el AFIS21.
Cuando se usa el PID? Cuando la cantidad de registros archivados es peque¤a o cuando lo que se requiere no es una
identificaci¢n de la huella para saber a qui‚n pertenece sino que se tiene la huella y el nombre de la persona y se quiere verificar
su identidad.
Esto tiene importantes aplicaciones en distintos mercados:
1.- Programas Sociales.
Una buena posibilidad ser¡a controlar el pago del seguro de desempleo, jubilaci¢n u otros beneficios. De esta forma se
evitar¡an que dichos beneficios sean cobrados por personas que no corresponden y se eliminar¡an las duplicaciones o los
recientemente conocidos casos de decuplicaciones en el cobro.
2- Prisiones.
Se puede colocar un sistema PID en cada acceso que se desea controlar. As¡ se agilizar¡a y mejorar¡a el control de los
presos que salen los fines de semana, los controles de entrada y salida a los patios, etc. Adem s, se integrar¡a con un
software que regule los horarios de los presos dando un valor agregado al control de acceso.
3- Medicina.
Los principales usuarios ser n lo centros privados importantes. Para identificar en las consultas la identidad del paciente
puede usarse un PID, si el paciente llega en una emergencia o en estado de inconsciencia se puede usar un AFIS y
verificar inmediatamente de quien se trata y qu‚ patolog¡as posee.
4- Registro de conductor.
Con un equipo port til se logra que un patrullero verifique la identidad del portador del registro del conductor, as¡ como
sus antecedentes de infracciones.
5- Acceso a cajeros autom ticos.
Reemplaza o complementa al codigo de identificaci¢n que se ingresa actualmente.
6- Control de acceso.
Control de acceso en lugares de alta seguridad; por ejemplo el control de acceso de la caja de seguridad de un banco,
donde se debe verificar sin lugar a equivocaciones que la persona es quien dice ser. Si llega una persona que tiene su
llave y sus documentos podr confundir a un guardia de hoy en d¡a, pero no podr enga¤ar a un guardia equipado con
un PID de NEC.
La novedad que presenta este sistema es que los algoritmos implementados en el PID no son unas sencillas l¡neas de
c¢digo que identifican m s o menos huellas digitales. Lo interesante es que se utilizan los mismos algoritmos que los
utilizados por los equipos AFIS21. Y estos son los algoritmos probados y elegidos por el 59% de la polic¡a mundial.
NEC, lider mundial en AFIS para polic¡as, se comprometi¢ a sacar al mercado equipos basados en PC, con la condici¢n de
que estos brinden la misma seguridad que le vali¢ el prestigio en equipos m s grandes, y lo hizo. |
