A New Era of Touchless Verification

In a world where digital identity and data security are more critical than ever, Gekonova is redefining how people prove who they are — simply by waving a hand. Our palm vein recognition technology offers a breakthrough in secure, hygienic, and seamless user authentication.

Traditional biometric systems like fingerprints or facial scans depend on visible surface features. Palm vein technology, however, goes deeper — literally. Using near-infrared (IR) light, it scans the unique vein patterns inside the human hand. These internal structures are invisible to the naked eye and nearly impossible to replicate, providing unmatched accuracy and liveness assurance.

How Palm Vein Verification Works

When a user hovers their hand above the Gekonova BioWavePass or WavePass500 device, two sensors — RGB and IR — capture both the surface palm print and the subcutaneous vein pattern. The captured data is instantly converted into encrypted biometric templates rather than stored images.

Within milliseconds, the templates are compared against secure databases — either local or cloud-based — to confirm identity. The result: verification accuracy up to 99% success rate in databases exceeding 5 million users, with matching speeds as fast as 0.35 seconds.

The process is fast, silent, and invisible. Users never have to touch the device, making it ideal for public environments such as hospitals, schools, banks, and transportation systems.

Why Palm Vein Is Safer Than Fingerprint or Face ID

Palm vein scanning stands out for three critical reasons:

  1. Internal Biometrics:

    The vein pattern lies beneath the skin, making it immune to external damage, aging, or forgery.

  2. Contactless Verification:

    No physical touch means no hygiene concerns, no wear-and-tear, and zero chance of residue-based spoofing.

  3. AI-Driven Encryption:

    Every scan is processed by Gekonova’s AI-based algorithm that combines RGB + IR data to extract thousands of unique feature points. These points are encrypted and transmitted securely, ensuring compliance with data protection standards like ISO/IEC 30107-3.

From Identity to Payments

Palm vein verification isn’t limited to access control or attendance. Through Gekonova’s PalmPay Experience Kit, developers and fintech innovators can integrate biometric authentication directly into payment flows.

Users can link their hand to a digital wallet, allowing payments, transfers, or check-ins simply by hovering above the sensor — without needing a card, phone, or PIN.

This capability makes Gekonova’s ecosystem ideal for:

  • Fintech & Banking: Seamless, fraud-resistant transactions

  • Healthcare: Secure patient check-in and access to electronic records

  • Education: Contactless student attendance and campus payments

  • Enterprise & Government: Identity-linked access for compliance and safety

Innovation That’s Ready to Deploy

The Gekonova Palm Verification System combines hardware, SDKs, and API integration support for developers worldwide. Partners can test the system using the PalmPay Experience Kit — a complete proof-of-concept setup that demonstrates registration, encryption, and payment authentication, without needing full infrastructure.

As industries accelerate toward digital identity transformation, Gekonova’s palm vein solutions offer the missing link between convenience, privacy, and trust.
