In 1991, AIS introduced the first biometric hand reader device in Malta. Since then, biometric technology has grown with the introduction of other biometric technologies including face and fingerprint technologies. After all these years, the biometric reader remains a reliable, affordable and easy to use Time & Attendance solution.
