Biometrics
Fingerprinting, Iris Scanning, Facial Recognition, and Other Technologies for Public and Personal Security This product is now available from our sister company, NextGen Research. If you are interested in this product, please view this product through NextGen. Biometrics offer a way to automate the recognition of a person’s identity based on a physiological or behavioral characteristic. Fingerprints, eyes, faces, hands, veins, ears, signatures and keystrokes are all biometric identifiers. There are vendors with equipment designed to collect each, and multiple applications for their use. Demand for greater security has driven interest and development in biometrics, with governments around the world leading adoption. This has given rise to a raft of new and emerging international standards to ensure interoperability. It has also created a market scale and equipment pricing to make biometrics an option for many private sector and corporate applications with demands for both increased security and convenience. This study examines the multiple technologies used to collect and manage biometric data as well as the leading and potential applications for biometrics. It also covers international and industry standards, key vendors and players throu What Questions Does This Report Answer?
