「カラ・レコ」は次世代カラーバーコード「カメレオンコード」をかざすだけで、出退勤の打刻が記録される新しいタイムレコーダーです。 カメレオンコード認証を用いた打刻管理システムでは、瞬時に認識するため打刻渋滞を解消します。 また、認証時に顔画像と合わせて撮影して記録していますので、ICカードの貸借によるなりすましによる不正な打刻を抑止することができます。 iOSタブレットやWindowsパソコンが打刻機になりますので、専用機と比べてハードの初期投資を抑えた形で導入が行えます。 手のひら静脈認証にも対応しておりサーバー不要で生体認証をご利用いただくこと可能です。 「カメレオンコード」とはシアン・マゼンダ・イエロー・ブラック(CMYK)を使った高速・高精度の複数認識が可能な次世代のカラーバーコードです。 接写せずに離れた場所からカメレオンコードをかざすだけで、高速・高精度の複数認識が可能なのでRFID(無線ICタグ)に代わる新たな認識技術として様々な分野への活用が始まっています。
