3. BIOMETRICS?
Technology that identifies you based on your physical or behavioral traits
- for added security to confirm that you are the one who claim to be.

4. HISTORY OF BIOMETRICS.
 The ancient Egyptians and Chinese played a vital role in biometrics history.
 Biometrics in practice was in form of finger printing being used in China in 14th century.
 Bertillon developed a technique of multiple body measurements.
 A system called ‘Indentimat’ which measured shape of the hand and length of fingers was
introduced in 1970’s

5. WHY BIOMETRICS?
Level of security
Something you have Something you know
Something you are

7. HOW BIOMETRIC WORKS?
Enrollment
The data to be verified is recorded and scanning is done.
Representation
The recorded data is converted into a digital representation and stored as a numerical template.
Matching
The questioned data is compared to the stored numerical template.
Verification/Identification
In verification, an image is matched to only one image in the database.
In identification, an image is compared to many captured biometric against a biometric database.

8. CONTRIBUTION IN DIFFERENT FIELDS.
 Finger Print and Hand Geometry Recognition
 Voice Recognition
 Handwriting Recognition
 Iris Scanning
 Vein Geometry Recognition
 Facial Geometry Recognition

9. COMPARISONS:

10. SUCCESS RATE
The average global pass rate for remote identity checks with face biometrics is 95 percent,
according to new research from Sumsub, well ahead of the 83 percent pass rate for 'selfie
with ID' checks.

11. BIOMETRICS:
Advantages
• Increase security.
• Eliminate problems caused by lost ID’s
and forgotten passwords.
• Make it possible, automatically, to
know WHO did WHAT, WHERE and
WHEN?
• Replace hard-to-remember passwords
which may be shared or observed.
Disadvantages
• Costly.
• Facial imaging can also hinder accurate
identification.
• The scanning of eye is fearful.
• Missing parts problems.
• False acceptances and rejections.
• The nervousness that people feel about
the scanners identification.

12. FUTURE OF BIOMETRIC TECHNIQUES:
Biometry is one of the most promising and life-altering technologies in existence today. It is all
set to change the way we live in the future. Some of the emerging biometrics technologies in the
near future are:
 Ear shape identification.
 Body odour identification.
 Body salinity identification.
 EEG Fingerprint.
 DNA matching.
