Biometrics

Fingerprints, iris patterns, facial shapes and vein patterns

Biometrics is the method of identifying someone using their biological data. Fingerprints, iris patterns, facial shapes and vein patterns are all unique to an individual and using this data can provide an infallible method of identification.

Biometrics is an evolving market, which has been grown recently due to security concerns.
