In hospitals and clinics, identity matters.
From patient records to insurance claims, even a minor mismatch can cause delays—or worse, medical errors.
That’s why healthcare organizations are turning to Palm Vein Authentication powered by X-Telcom’s Palm Vein Technology.
It’s fast, hygienic, and doesn’t rely on phones, cards, or passwords.
Here’s how it works—and why it’s perfect for secure healthcare workflows.
🖐 Touch-Free Identity: How It Starts
At the heart of the system are two high-performance scanners:
- XT-PalmVein 01 USB Palm Vein Reader – Ideal for desktops, registration counters, and nursing stations
- XT-WavePass500 Android Palm Vein Scanner Device – For mobile carts, bedside ID, and outpatient kiosks
When a patient places their palm near the sensor, the device uses RGB + IR dual-mode imaging to:
- Detect deep vein patterns (via near-infrared)
- Capture surface textures for anti-spoofing (via RGB)
- Generate a unique feature string template
This method is hygienic, contactless, and works regardless of patient age, skin condition, or lighting environment.
☁️ Cloud-Based or Local Authentication
The encrypted feature string is securely transmitted to the Palm SDK Server, which may be hosted in the cloud or on-premises depending on hospital IT policy.
X-Telcom’s AI engine then:
- Registers new users into the biometric database
- Or authenticates the palm against millions of stored records in real time
With combined RGB + IR feature points and optional image backup, our engine achieves:
- ✅ 99% success rate
- ✅ Matching in 0.35 seconds, even with 5 million+ IDs
Unlike old IR-only algorithms, this is real AI-driven biometric recognition—built for scale and healthcare-grade accuracy.
🏥 Use Cases in Medical Workflows
Palm Vein Authentication improves care quality and compliance across hospitals:
-
Patient Check-In
Confirm identity at kiosks, reception, or nurse stations—no ID card or insurance form needed. -
Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Access
Link palm scans to authorized staff roles for secure, traceable access to sensitive records. -
Prescription Pickup
Verify identity at the pharmacy counter to ensure the right patient receives the right medication. -
Inpatient Monitoring
Match palm to patient records at bedside using handheld Android terminals—ideal for nurses and home care.
🔐 Data Security, Privacy, and Compliance
X-Telcom ensures healthcare institutions remain in control of user data:
- Palm SDK Server only receives feature strings—never personal ID data
- All business logic and patient records stay within the hospital’s own systems
- AES-256 CBC encryption for storage, HTTPS + SSL for transmission
- Architecture supports HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO/IEC 27701 compliance
- Supports hybrid, air-gapped, or fully offline deployments
You own the identity data. We handle the recognition.
✅ Why It Works for Healthcare
- Contactless and non-invasive
- Safe and compliant
- Fast even at large scale
- Cross-platform SDKs (Windows, Android, Linux)
- Ideal for registration, access control, and payment authorization
