Manual attendance management is now an old story, and we have biometric attendance systems now. There are continuous updates in the biometrics solutions according to the demands of the novel requirements. This blog explores some of the trends in the biometric attendance system.
Biometrics is very much part of our lives in this postmodern world. Since biometrics is integrated with our smartphones as at least different authentication methods, it’s right to say that biometrics is an inevitable part of human’s day to day life. We experience it from fingerprint authentications to face recognition through our smartphones. When it comes to offices, industrial spaces or enterprises, biometrics has a larger role. The most important among is time and attendance management.
Even though security is considered to be the prominent benefit of biometrics, it brings several equally important benefits. From saving effort and time to making the working time productive, the advantages are many. Thus, biometrics is now widely applied across industries and facilities, and they are multiple kinds. Now let’s start looking at the trends in biometric access control systems in Dubai.
If fingerprint recognition was popular once, now there are several other features integrated into time and attendance systems. As facial recognition integrated with access systems, the proficiency got elevated. It makes the systems applicable for more industries like construction. The workers probably have stains on their hands and fingerprinting is not practical. Face recognition is pivotal in such situations. It gives another level of safety, speed and efficiency. Then, the attendance can be accurate multimodal biometric devices support RFID cards that already exist in the sector. Besides, smartphones can also be integrated with attendance systems that make the process more convenient for those who are using them on a daily basis.
Attendance data storing and analyzing became a heavier task as enterprises become bigger and bigger. Manual data storage is impractical to a large extent due to massive data and the cost the process demands. At the same time, the latest biometric machines are cloud-based systems that help reduce factual errors in data management. If it’s a large enterprise where thousands of people visit, the cloud-based system ensures the security and safety of the facility too.
The updated AI algorithms contribute to a more advanced version of face recognition systems. Since the pandemic emerged in 2020, biometric systems became more relevant, especially face recognition. Thanks to AI, now face recognition has the option to recognize faces with a mask on. Furthermore, it can deny access to those with masks off. Plus, face recognition systems work in different light conditions. All these features better the convenience of attendance management in facilities.
Inequality in facial recognition has been a huge matter of discussion. Facial recognition systems nowadays getting updated versions where every ethnicity is recognized equally. High classification accuracy is now one of the prominent features of the systems. The massive data capacity and proven record verification of multiple ethnicities across gender make face recognition more accurate.
Face recognition systems for access control and time & attendance have been used across industries. Airports, which are highly security-based facilities, now started integrating facial detection systems and it proves the importance of biometrics.
Safe School provides Indoor Positioning System based on BlueTooth and WiFi which helps the school to monitor the attendance in the classes, which students wait most for bus or pickup, how punctual teachers are reaching in classrooms, are all the classrooms checked post-school by security staff or not. It empowers the student with “World’s First iCard with Panic Button for Schools”. Just on the press of button, the school security team is alerted with the precise location of the child within the school along with details.

Emergency Evacuation
RFID based Emergency Evacuation or Mustering solution provides visibility to track the location of the employees during an emergency. It helps the first responders to act efficiently and to reduce the response time. It can be implemented in all the sectors and industries. The employee wears the RFID badge or wristband which will be tracked at various checkpoints in the building using the RFID Readers. The reader at the assembly point provide the details of the people assembled and the people missed. The current location of the missed people will be alerted by the system and focused rescue actions can be performed.
Condition Monitoring
Many manufacturing and Oil & Gas facilities focus on condition monitoring or predictive maintenance solutions for motors, bearings, rollers, conveyors, water pumps, etc.. An unplanned motor failure can cause a line-down situation ranging anywhere from a couple of hours to several days. BLE based condition monitoring solution is one which predicts failure or presents the deterioration rate for any equipment that has the potential to cause downtime, in time to react. Bluvision’s advanced Condition Monitoring uses machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) to predict failure on any motor or mechanical equipment, weeks or months before the failure happens.
