Using a safe, near-infrared light source like that in a TV remote control, palm vein recognition examines the unique patterns in a candidate’s palm veins. This method of ID verification is fast, highly accurate, and secure, protecting candidate privacy while producing only a single record for each test-taker that is virtually impossible to forge. In fact, even identical twins have different patterns!  \nWhy is Pearson VUE using palm vein technology?  \nPalm vein recognition offers a form of positive identification that is much more accurate than older identity verification technologies like digital fingerprinting. Palm vein recognition allows us to accurately identify people trying to take exams under an assumed test-taker identity. By preventing proxy testers, this technology helps us maintain the integrity of our clients’ credential programs.  \nWhat can candidates expect at the test center?  \nUpon arriving at the test center for exam check-in, candidates will have their palm vein patterns recorded. The pattern will be scanned and matched again when candidates return to the testing room after a break.  \nHow does the palm vein recognition system work, and how do candidates use it?  \nPalm vein recognition scans the veins inside a candidate’s hand and creates a digital template representing their unique vein pattern. Candidates simply place a hand on the device containing the sensor, which records the pattern of their palm veins on a digital template.  \nHow will palm vein patterns be used and stored?  \nInformation from palm vein scans is stored as a digital template. Our technology immediately reduces the palm vein image to a numerical code, which is not readable or usable outside of our systems and cannot be used for any purpose other than identity verification. When candidates finish their exam, the digital template is sent via encrypted transmission with their test results to Pearson VUE. Each candidate’s vein pattern template is stored separately from other information about them in the system.  \nCopyright © 2021 Pearson Education, Inc. or its affiliate(s) .
