Biometrics: Presented By: Pramod Kumar Tamta Id No:28446

Biometrics uses unique human physical and behavioral characteristics as a means of authentication. It can integrate fingerprint, facial recognition, iris, retinal, voice, and signature recognition into applications for security, access control, and user identification verification. A biometric system collects biometric data, processes it, makes an authentication decision, and stores the data in a database. The quality of a biometric system is measured by its false rejection and false acceptance rates. Biometrics is being used in increasing applications and global developments continue to advance the technology.

BIOMETRICS

CONTENTS
Introduction The underlying idea Higher security coupled with Convenience Applications in use The biometric model System quality Global developments

INTRODUCTION
Biometrics is a means of using parts of the human body as a kind of permanent password. Just as your fingerprints are unlikely those of any other person, your eyes, ears, hands, voice, and face are also unique.

THE UNDERLYING IDEA


Biometrics systems automatically verify or recognize the identity of a living person based on two techniques: Physiological characteristics:-fingerprint, retina, palm geometry, iris, facial structure. Behavioral characteristics:- voice prints, signatures, typing patterns, keystroke patterns, gait.

HIGHER SECURITY COUPLED WITH CONVENIENCE


The biometrics technique can be integrated into applications that require security, access control, and identification or verification of users. Biometrically secured resources effectively eliminate risks, while at the same time offering a high level of security and convenience to both the users and the administrators.

APPLICATIONS IN USE
Applications that are being developed to accept biometric data include: Computer networks Cars Cellular phones Hoards of other types embedded systems.

How Biometrics Techniques Work


Face recognition A camera captures the image of a face. Features and discrete areas of the face are analyzed. Converts the image of a fingerprint in to a mathematical template of the prints minutiae points. Data is encrypted. A picture of the hand is taken and salient features are examined. These include 3D shape, length and width of fingers, and shape of knuckles. A video camera shoots an image of the eye. The patterns of the iris are converted into digitized code. The code is encrypted and compared with a database of iris codes. The system analyses the characteristics and rhythm of a persons typing. Users position their eye in proximity to the retinal reader and focus their sight on an illuminated target inside the reader. An image of the retinas blood vessel pattern is saved in a file. Users signature digital graphics tablet. The system analyses speed, stroke order, stroke count, and pressure. The user states a pass phrase into a microphone or telephone handset. The system analyses cadence, pitch, tone, and shape of the larynx. Fingerprint scan Hand geometry

SYSTEM QUALITY
The quality of a biometrics authentication algorithm is specified in terms of false rejection rate (FRR) and false acceptance rate (FAR).

RECENT BREKTHROUGH
Israelis Michael and Alex Bronstein have applied a new technology to recognizing faces in a way that may yet revolutionize international security. Facial signatures could also be embedded in credit cards or entry permits. This technology can be used from airports and border crossings to security zones and teller machines.
