SPECTRAMIND SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY INCORPORATED is a local company founded in 2004 by Roger Te Un Son - an engineer whose interest in trading and IT equipments trails back to the early days of PC revolution. Founder is also one of the founders of TITANIUM TECHNOLOGIES, a company that focuses on serving the IT requirements of Filipino-Chinese companies. With accumulated experience from TITANIUM TECHNOL
OGIES in trading, software development and IT field exposures, SPECTRAMIND was created as a spin-off to handle further IT Time Recording solutions for TITANIUM TECHNOLOGIES. Reorientation of SPECTRAMIND led to trade in biometric devices carrying DigitalPersona brand. DigitalPersona is a US company which provides the world’s leading fingerprint-based total password automation solutions. SPECTRAMIND started with PC-based biometric devices, carrying solely DigitalPersona sensors and increasingly establishing market share. Corresponding software was designed to drive biometric devices to handle Time Recording services to cater to broad range of clients; and is being marketed to companies engaged in cons- truction, manufacturing - covering such sub-industries as office supplies, paper, paint, garments, hardware, textile, real estate, medicine, food, electrical components, restaurants and more. Company sizes ranges from small mom-and-pop operations to major industry players with thousands of employees and multi- billion-peso revenues. We have established provincial partners in key provinces of the Philippines to provide biometric time recording solution nationwide. Currently, we also provide standalone/portable biometric time recorder using fingerprint technology. Long term plan is to become a market leader in providing best value biometrics time recording solution with local warranty services. Partial Client List:

DigitalPersona
Guide to Fingerprint Recognition
All fingerprints are unique. The critical issue is whether we can get to the information that
is unique and express it in a way that meets the objective of positive identification. Getting to and expressing the unique information in the fingerprint biometric is the
mission of DigitalPersona and its Fingerprint Recognition Engine. Introduction
When we interact with others we are used to identifying them by their
physical appearance, their voice, or other sensory data. When we need proof of
identity beyond physical appearance we obtain a signature or we look at a photo
identification card. In Cyberspace, where people need to interact with digital
systems or with one another remotely, we do not have these tried and true
means of identification available. In almost all cases we cannot see, hear, or
obtain a signature from the person with whom we are interacting. Biometrics, the measurement of a unique physical characteristic, is an
ideal solution to the problem of digital identification. Biometrics makes it possible
to identify ourselves to digital systems, and through these systems identify
ourselves to others in Cyberspace. With biometrics we create a digital persona
that makes our transactions and interactions in Cyberspace convenient and
secure. Of all the biometrics available, including face, iris and retina scanning,
voice identification, and others, the fingerprint is one of the most convenient and
foolproof. The advantages of fingerprint biometrics for the purpose of personal digital
identification include:
• Each and every one of our ten fingerprints is unique, different from one
another and from those of every other person. Even identical twins have
unique fingerprints.
• Unlike passwords, PIN codes, and smartcards that we depend upon today for
identification, our fingerprints are impossible to lose or forget, and they can
never be stolen.
• We have ten fingerprints as opposed to one voice, one face or two eyes.
• Fingerprints have been used for centuries for identification, and we have a
substantial body of real world data upon which to base our claim of the
uniqueness of each fingerprint. Iris scanning, for instance, is an entirely new
science for which there is little or no real world data. In the DigitalPersona Guide to Fingerprint Identification we explain how we
know that the likelihood of two fingerprints being alike is so infinitesimal as to be
impossible, how much unique information is available in each print, how
fingerprints have been used over the centuries as proof of identity, and how
DigitalPersona is adapting this standard of identification for the digital age. The Basics of Fingerprint Identification
The skin on the inside surfaces of our hands, fingers, feet, and toes is
“ridged” or covered with concentric raised patterns. These ridges are called
friction ridges and they serve the useful function of making it easier to grasp and
hold onto objects and surfaces without slippage. It is the many differences in the
way friction ridges are patterned, broken, and forked which make ridged skin
areas, including fingerprints, unique. Fingerprint Identification Terminology
Fingerprints are extremely complex. In order to “read” and classify them,
certain defining characteristics are used, many of which have been established
by law enforcement agencies as they have created and maintained larger and
larger databases of prints. Even though biometrics companies like DigitalPersona
do not save images of fingerprints and do not use the same manual process to
analyze them, many of the methodologies that have been established over the
years in law enforcement are useful for digital algorithms as well. Global Versus Local Features
We make use of two types of fingerprint characteristics for use in identification
of individuals: Global Features and Local Features. Global Features are those
characteristics that you can see with the naked eye. Global Features include:
Basic Ridge Patterns
