After testing different solutions and technologies, Nicolas Corps, responsible for NSJ Computer Solutions, has chosen biometric technology Orcanthus for its exceptional rate of success of fingerprint recognition, ease of implementation, and its price positioning .
He explains the practical benefits to the restaurant:
