Biometrics
Biometrics are forms of identification which rely on the physical characteristics of a person to prove who they are. Thumbprint scanners, retinal scanners, and voiceprint recognizers are all computerized forms of biometric authentication. Questions about these devices and other biometric techniques belong here.

Future enhancement of biometrics facial recognition?
1. Facial Thermogram- requires an expensive infrared camera to detect the facial heat patterns that are unique to every human being.
2. Dynamic facial features- track the motion of certain features on the face during a facial expression and obtain a vector field that characterizes the deformation of the face.
How will biometric be use in society in the next 5 years?
In the next five years, biometrics will increasingly be integrated into everyday life, enhancing security and convenience across various sectors. We can expect broader adoption in areas like mobile payments, access control for buildings, and identity verification for online services. Additionally, advancements in biometric technologies, such as facial recognition and fingerprint scanning, will likely improve accuracy and reduce privacy concerns, leading to greater public acceptance. Overall, biometrics will play a pivotal role in streamlining authentication processes and improving safety in both personal and professional environments.
What is authentication based upon?
Authentication is based upon either:
- Something you know (such as a PIN).
- Something you have (such as an ID card).
- Something you are (such as a fingerprint, retina scan or DNA sample).
Preferably, authentication will combine two or more of the three.
