    1. Biometric data

      User biometric data such as face, fingerprint and iris are comparing against the database with previously collected biometric samples depending on the Recognition threshold setting. If the matching score is greater than the Recognition threshold setting value, user is considered as identified. Therefore, this mode may demand large processing time.

  2. Verification

To get verified, matching score should be greater than Verification threshold setting. The verification as two options

    1. ID first

      This is the default option. When this is enabled, client will ask for the visitor pass first and biometric data second. Once the visitor verified, client will record the event

    2. Biometric first

      The client will ask for the biometric data first and User id data second. Once the visitor verified, client will record the event

  3. None

    When biometric mode is None, the client will use user id data to record the visitor events.

This setting allows to record events if the visitor wears a hat. If the hat detection feature is enabled, events will be recorded when the hat detection score from the client is greater than the Hat detection threshold .

Hat detection threshold

This setting is available in NCheck visitor management clients when the hat detection has enabled. Administrator can set the hat detection threshold. event will be recorded if the hat detection score from the NCheck visitor management clients lager than hat detection threshold

KIOSK mode operation (For Microsoft Windows clients)

Enable this to open NCheck visitor management clients for Windows in the full-screen mode. This setting has been disabled by default.

Client mode

This client mode has two options

  1. Attendance mode

  2. Registration mode

Duplicate event timeout

Face liveness mode for client application

Liveness can be used to differentiate live faces from non-live faces to prevents buddy punching. Face liveness mode is None by default. When this is enable, user will be asked to follow set of instructions. If user follows the instruction correctly, event will be recorded. Available options are

  1. Passive

    In this mode, the user should hold his head still for a few seconds.

    _images/image572.PNG

    Figure 277 Android Standard client in passive liveness mode

  2. Active

    In this mode, the user should follow the commands on the screen by moving his head or blinking eyes.

    Figure 279 Android Standard client in active liveness mode

  3. Passive and active

    Both passive and active mode above is combined for better face recognition result.

  4. Simple

    In this mode, the user should follow the commands on the screen and turn face time to time. It is simplified version of Active liveness recognition.

    Figure 281 Android Standard client in simple liveness mode

  5. Custom

    In this mode, it is required to turn head to four directions (up, down, left, right) in a random order (follow up points are same as Active mode).

  6. None

    In this mode, the face liveness check is not performed.

Face liveness threshold for client application

The value which controls the requirements for client-side face liveness. The greater this value is the stricter rules are applied when deciding if the face is live. Default face liveness threshold value is 50.

Server-side face liveness checking

Enable this setting to differentiate live faces from non-live faces. Unlike client-side face liveness, here the server will detect the liveness of the captured face.

Server face liveness confidence threshold

The value which controls the requirements for server-side face liveness. The greater this value is the stricter rules are applied when deciding if the face is live. Default face liveness threshold value is 50.

Recognition threshold

Increase the value if same user identified differently time to time during identification. Note that good image quality is required for a higher recognition accuracy during face identification. Default recognition threshold value is 48.

Verification threshold

Increase the value if higher verification accuracy is required. Note that good image quality is required for a higher accuracy during face verification. Default verification threshold value is 36.

Enrollment threshold

Start with a higher enrollment accuracy if the system is intended to be used with a larger crowd. Default enrollment threshold value is 48.

Face confidence

Use higher face confidence for event image if good image quality is available. Default face confidence value is 40.

Face quality

Increase the value if the same user identified differently from time to time. By increasing the value, the system is forced to ignore low quality face images. Default face quality value is 40. Face quality will be 0, if the “Mask detection” setting is set to detect or required.

Mask detection

This setting can be used to detect user face with a mask. Before enable face mask detection, make sure that you have selected the “Detect face mask” setting under the “Face quality” setting in biometric setting. Once the mask detection is set, NCheck visitor management clients will calculate the mask detection score to perform the operations based on “Mask detection threshold” according to the selected mask detection option as below. The following settings are available for mask detection

  1. Disable

    Select this option to identify face without face mask.

  2. Detect

    Select this option to identify face with face mask. The detection will be indicated in the clients as follows

    Table 9 Indicators for Detect mask detection option

    Indicator of Windows Standard client

    Indicator of Android Standard client

    Mask detection score >= Mask detection threshold

    _images/image589.PNG

    Mask detection score < Mask detection threshold

    _images/image590.PNG
    _images/image591.PNG
  3. Required

    To record the event successfully, user must wear a mask. If the mask detection score is greater than the “Mask detection threshold”, attendance will be recorded successfully. The detection will be indicated in the clients as below

    Table 10 Indicators for Required mask detection option

    Indicator of Windows Standard client

Mask detection threshold

Decrease the value, if a user face with a face mask is not identified as mentioned in “Mask detection” settings. Make sure that you have selected the “Detect face mask” setting under the “Face quality” setting in biometric setting

Maximum face yaw

The maximum angle of the face needs to be captured by the client. Maximum face yaw can be 0- 90 degrees.

Fingerprint quality

Increase the value if the same user identified differently from time to time. By increasing the value, the system is forced to ignore low quality finger scans. Default fingerprint quality value is 40.

Iris quality

Increase the value if the same user identified differently from time to time. By increasing the value, the system is forced to ignore low quality iris scans. Default fingerprint quality value is 50.

Face confidence for enrollment

Use higher face confidence for enrolling image if good image quality is available. Default face confidence value is 30.

Face quality for Enrollment

Increase the value if the enrolling face image duplicates with enrolled face image of another user. By increasing this value, the system is forced to ignore low quality face images. Default value is 48.

Finger quality for Enrollment

Increase the value if the enrolling finger image duplicated with enrolled finger image of another user. By increasing the value, the system is forced to ignore low quality finger scans. Default fingerprint quality value is 40.

Iris quality for Enrollment

Increase the value if the enrolling itris image duplicates with the iris image of another user. By increasing the value, the system is forced to ignore low quality iris scans. Default fingerprint quality value is 50.

High-speed face detection

High speed face detection when the face biometric is used. This setting has been disabled by default.

Disable duplicate checking

Enable this setting to enroll same biometric image for different users.
