Duplication Check of Fingerprint / Face for User Registration Process
If multiple users had enrolled the same fingerprints or faces, then there can be some security problems.
To prevent users from enrolling duplicated fingerprints or faces, duplication check in BioStar 2 is supported from BioStar 2 v2.7.8.
You must match BioStar 2 server version and device firmware versions to enable 'Duplicate Check' feature.
Supporting Devices:
- FaceStation 2 v1.3.0 and over
- FaceLite v1.1.0 and over
- BioStation 2 v1.8.0 and over
- BioStation L2 v1.5.0 and over
- BioStation A2 v1.7.0 and over
- BioLite N2 v1.2.0 and over
- FaceStation F2 v1.0.0 and over

- To support this feature, you need to use both BioStar 2 v2.7.8 or above and supporting firmware.
- Supported for 1:N matching. (Not supported for 1:1 matching)
- If one user has registered the same fingerprints / faces, there will be no duplication checks for those data.
- Duplication checking time and speed will be different by the location of fingerprint / face data stored.
- Even though there are many duplicated fingerprints / faces in current database, BioStar 2 and device will show 1 user information.
