A group of people who can answer calls on behalf of someone else.
Industry:Software
A call to a call group that rings the group owner and call group simultaneously. Once a member of the group answers the call, the other members get a notification with the status of the call.
Industry:Software
A software object that consists of three software plug-in components: a sensor adapter, engine adapter and storage adapter. These adapters are plug-ins for the Windows Biometric Service and are used to capture and process biometric samples, as well as create, store, and match biometric templates.
Industry:Software
A set of data resulting from the measurement of one specific characteristic of a single individual. Examples of a biometric sample would be the image of one fingerprint or one iris scan.
Industry:Software
The process of creating and sending text messages between or to mobile phones and devices using the SMS protocol.
Industry:Software
Any hardware or software that can detect events or environmental changes, such as your current location or the amount of light around your computer. For example, a notebook with a location sensor, such as a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, can determine your exact location. An ambient light sensor can detect when there is a change in lighting, and then a program can use that information to adjust the brightness of your screen.
Industry:Software
A category of sensor that can detect the current location of your computer.
Industry:Software
Technologies that measure and analyze physical and behavioral human characteristics, such as fingerprints, eye retinas and irises, voice patterns, facial patterns, hand measurements, typing patterns and signatures, to recognize or authenticate identity.
Industry:Software
An adapter that performs various core biometric operations: cleanup of sensor data, feature extraction, template generation, matching, and indexing. These functions can either be implemented by software in the engine adapter, or by the engine adapter making use of some piece of processing hardware.
Industry:Software
An adapter that acts as a wrapper around the physical sensor, and provides a standard interface for configuring the sensor, capturing samples, and controlling the flow of biometric data from the sensor into the processing engine.
