3. Introduction
•Biometrics refers to the automatic identification of a
person based on his or her physiological or behavioral
characteristics .
• The technology is mainly used for identification and
access control or for identifying individuals who are
under surveillance.
6. Finger Print Recognition Vascular Pattern Matching
• Fingerprint recognition is the
process of the verification of a
person's identity by
comparing their fingerprints
with previously recorded
samples.
• Overview of vascular pattern
recognition, also called vein
pattern authentication
which uses near-infrared light
to derive images of blood
vessels of a hand or finger for
personal recognition.
7. Iris Recognition Facial Recognition
• Iris recognition is an
automated method of biometric
identification that uses
mathematical pattern-
recognition techniques on
video images of one or both of
the irises of an individual's
eyes.
• Facial recognition is a way
of identifying or confirming
an individual's identity using
their face. Facial recognition
systems can be used to
identify people in photos,
videos, or in real-time.
8. Retina Recognition
• One of the most secure means
of biometrics
• Unique to each person
• Unique to each eye
• Problems: require effort on the
part of subjects
9. Procedure of Working
For capturing a person in a biometric system, an image of the original
feature is first created and recorded, which is the raw data in the
process.
10. Applications of Biometric Systems

12. Conclusion
Biometric is an emerging area with many opportunities
for growth.
Possibly in the near future, you will not have to remember
PINs and passwords and keys in your bags or pockets will
be things of the past.
