No iris scanners are not dangerous.
Iris scanners and fingerprint scanners are alternative (biometric) input devices for computers.
Biometric scanning devices use fingerprints and iris scanners because they are unique to each individual and difficult to replicate. Fingerprints have been widely used for identification due to their distinct patterns, while iris scanners offer high levels of accuracy as the patterns in the iris are highly distinctive and stable over time. Combining these two methods enhances the security and reliability of the biometric authentication process.
The iris of the eye is like a fingerprint. Iris scanners use this to lock doors so only those people whose irises match the files are allowed to enter.
No. That is why eye scanners would be as, or even more usefull than fingerprints.
each person has there own "eyeprint" (if you will). in the back of your iris there is small little fibers that reflect light back which we have devolped over millions of years to block uv rays. iris scanners pick up the light bounced back from your eye. no one on earth has a "twin" iris structure that's why it works so well. fingerprint scanners can be foiled by someone stealing your fingerprint off of an object you own or use every day you can not steal a iris structure that's what makes it so effective.
Fingerprint scanners, facial recognition technology, iris scanners, and voice recognition systems are examples of biometric systems that use unique biological characteristics for identification and authentication purposes.
An iris scanner uses visible and near-infrared light to scan the iris of an eye. The iris scanner takes a picture and uses it to compare that to an image already stored in a database to see if there is a match. Since everyone's eyes are unique, iris scanners are becoming more popular for identifying people in security situations.
They are usually benign. Your eye doctor will monitor them.
A device that scans your iris when you look into the device. Used in movies a lot to portray a top secret area that they have to look into a device and have their eye scanned to gain access. Your iris is just like your fingerprints... no two are alike.
There are 3 types of scanners currently being sold on the market. These scanners are photo scanners, paper fed scanners, and hand held scanners.
A fingerprinting scan is a very common biometric device. There are also iris matching scanners for high tech security. @Nottingham YE$
Sheet fed scanners have automatic document feeders. Flat bed scanners do not.
