Global Biometrics Market - Key Trends and Drivers Summarized
Biometrics refers to the measurement and statistical analysis of people's unique physical and behavioral characteristics. The technology is primarily used for identification and access control, or for identifying individuals that are under surveillance. The most common biometric modalities include fingerprint scanning, facial recognition, iris recognition, and voice recognition. Each modality offers a different level of security and convenience, and the choice of which biometric system to use depends on the specific application. For example, fingerprint scanning is widely used for its ease and speed in consumer electronics and entry access systems, while iris recognition is favored in high-security environments due to its low false acceptance rates.Biometric systems are increasingly being integrated into a variety of devices and platforms across multiple sectors.
