Te
ch
▪ Biometric recognition systems capture and digitize salient features from
the fingerprint such as the arrangement of minutiae and the flow and
orientation of the ridges to create a biometric template.
▪ These templates are then stored in a dataset that allows the system to
select fingerprints to perform either individual comparisons or searches
through the appropriate database(s) depending on the use case.
▪ Fingerprints can be recorded using paper and ink but most current
biometric applications use either a scanner, where the finger is placed on
or rolled across a platen, or a contactless method that captures the
required detail at a proximal distance. 16

▪ The length, width, thickness, and surface area of the individual’s hand is
measured and recorded.
▪ Multiple features and measurements are extracted during this process.
Several images of the same hand are often taken in order to produce a
single stored template that has sufficient detail for identification purposes.
▪ These images and the supporting data are then filed in a database and are
used to authenticate the identity of the enrollee in subsequent encounters
when the subject’s hands are imaged again and compared with the

reference images to confirm or reject the identity claim.

Iris Recognition

How It works

Te
ch
▪ Iris recognition technology uses the unique patterns of the colored tissue that form the
iris. These patterns are captured by a camera operating in near infra-red wavelengths
▪ The first iris cameras had to be close to the eyes (but not in contact with them) in
order to record sufficient detail but technological advances now allow cameras to be
placed several feet away and capture the irises of those on the move such as at an airport
boarding gate.
▪ The system uses pattern-recognition algorithms, in a similar way to automated
fingerprint recognition systems, to perform comparisons in both the biometric one-to-
one (1:1) verification to authenticate a suggested identity and one-to-many (1:N)
identification modes as a probe to search a database to establish if any of the other iris
records provide a potential match. 24

▪ The voice is collected and analyzed by software that employs
artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to produce
a vast array of data derived from factors such as modulation of
speech, tones, accent, frequency etc.
▪ These elements enable the system to create a reference template of
the voice (known as a ‘voice print’ or ‘voice model) that can be
used to authenticate the speaker in subsequent transactions
