    Biometrics uses human physiological and behavioral characteristics to identify or verify human identity. There are two main categories of biometrics: physiological (e.g. fingerprints, face) and behavioral (e.g. signature, voice). Biometric technologies work by enrolling and storing biometrics during enrollment then verifying identity during subsequent interactions. While biometrics provide accurate identity verification, they also have disadvantages such as changes to biometrics over time and difficulty authenticating certain groups like those with injuries or illnesses.

    The key takeaways are that biometrics is the identification or verification of human identity through measurement of repeatable physiological and behavioral characteristics. Some examples of biometrics discussed are fingerprints, face, iris, signature, and voice.

    The different types of biometrics discussed are fingerprints, face, iris, signature, voice, and DNA. They can be categorized as physiological biometrics like fingerprints, face, iris, and DNA or behavioral biometrics like signature and voice.

    Some characteristics that biometric technologies should have according to the document are universality, uniqueness, permanence, collectibility, performance, acceptability, and difficulty to circumvent.

    BIOMETRICS
    Definition
    “ Biometrics is the identification or
    verification of human identity through the
    measurement of repeatable physiological
    and behavioral characteristics”
    Categories of BIOMETRICS:

    Biometrics can be sorted into two classes:

    • Physiological
    Examples-face,fingerprints,hand geometry
    and iris Recognition,dna.

    • Behavioral
    Examples-signature and voice.
    Basic characteristics of BIOMETRIC
    Technologies:
    • Universality: Every person should have the characteristic.
    People who are mute or without a fingerprint will need to be
    accommodated in some way.
    • Uniqueness: Generally, no two people have identical
    characteristics. However, identical twins are hard to distinguish.
    • Permanence: The characteristics should not vary with time. A
    person's face, for example, may change with age.
    • Collectibility: The characteristics must be easily collectible and
    measurable.
    • Performance: The method must deliver accurate results under
    varied environmental circumstances.
    • Acceptability: The general public must accept the sample
    collection routines. Nonintrusive methods are more acceptable.
    • Circumvention: The technology should be difficult to deceive
    Working principle :
    Biometric devices consist of a reader or scanning
    device software that converts the gathered information
    into digital form, and a database that stores the
    biometric data with comparison with existing records.

    • Enrollment Mode.
    • Verification Mode.
    Modes:
    • Enrollment Mode:
    A sample of the biometric trait is captured,
    processed by a computer, and stored for later
    comparison .
    • Verification Mode:
    In this mode biometric system authenticates a
    person’s claimed identity from their previously
    enrolled pattern.
    Biometric Modalities:

    • Fingerprint Recognition:
    For fingerprint Recognition look at :

     Friction ridges.
     Core
     Crossover.
     Delta.
     Island
     Ridge Ending.
     Pore.
    LOOP, ARCH AND WHORL
    Minutiae
    • Uses ridge endings ,bifurcations on a person’s
    finger to plot points know as Minutiae.
    • The number and locations of the minutiae vary from
    finger to finger in any particular person, and from
    person to person for any particular finger.

    Face Recognition:
    It involves recognizing
    people by there:
    • Facial features.
    • Face geometry.

    Principle:
    Analysis of unique shape, pattern and
    positioning of facial features.
    Voice Recognition:

    • Voice recognition is not the same as


    speech recognition, it is speaker
    recognition.
    • Considered both physiological and
    behavioral.
    • Popular and low-cost, but less accurate
    and sometimes lengthy enrollment.
    Styles of spoken input:
    These system have three styles of
    spoken inputs:
    • Text Dependent.
    • Text prompted.
    • Text Independent.
    Iris Recognition:
    Iris:
    • It is the coloured area of the eye that
    surrounds the pupil.
    • It is a protected internal organ whose
    random texture is stable throughout
    life.
    • The iris patterns are obtained through a
    video-based image acquisition system .
    Iris Images:
    Signature Verification:

    • Static/Off-line: the conventional way.


    • Dynamic/On-line: using electronically
    instrumented device.
    Principle:
    The movement of the pen during the signing
    process rather than the static image of the
    signature.Many aspects of the signature in motion
    can be studied, such as pen pressure, the sound
    the pen makes.
    Biometric devices:
    • Optical fingerprint scanner:
    • Personal fingerprint safes:
    These safes are revolutionary locking
    systems storage cases that open with
    just the touch of your finger.
    Advantages of Biometrics:
    • Biometric identification can provide extremely
    accurate, secured access to information; fingerprints,
    retinal and iris scans produce absolutely unique data
    sets when done properly.
    • Current methods like password verification have
    many problems (people write them down, they forget
    them, they make up easy-to-hack passwords) .
    • Automated biometric identification can be done very
    rapidly and uniformly, with a minimum of training .
    • Your identity can be verified without resort to
    documents that may be stolen, lost or altered.
    Disadvantages of BIOMETRICS:
    • The finger print of those people working in Chemical
    industries are often affected. Therefore these
    companies should not use the finger print mode of
    authentication.
    • It is found that with age, the voice of a person
    differs. Also when the person has flu or throat
    infection the voice changes or if there there are too
    much noise in the environment this method maynot
    authenticate correctly. Therefore this method of
    verification is not workable all the time
    • For people affected with diabetes, the eyes get
    affected resulting in differences.
    • Biometrics is an expensive security solution.
    BIOMETRICS SECURITY:
    Security personnel look for biometric data that
    does not change over the course of your life;
    that is, they look for physical characteristics
    that stay constant and that are difficult to fake
    or change on purpose.
