Biometric solutions
The use of biometric recognition within school canteen environments is increasing nationwide. This is a cost-effective, low maintenance option for pupil and student identification, enabling fast-track transaction processing, minimising school meal serving lines and freeing children from the need to carry cards or remember PIN numbers.
Biometrics eliminates the need to create cards or replace ones that have been lost or stolen. Students no longer need to remember PIN numbers. With the enrolment process taking no more than 15 seconds per student, this accurate, efficient means of identification will produce benefits for schools, staff, parents and children.
