II. HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF BIOMETRICS

Using designs for individual recognizable proof was
initially proposed in 1936 by ophthalmologist Frank Burch. By
the 1980's the thought had showed up in James Bond movies,
however regardless it remained sci-fi and guess. In 1987, two
different ophthalmologists Aram Safir and Leonard Flom
protected this thought and in 1987 they requested that John
Daugman attempt to make real calculations for this iris
acknowledgment. These calculations which Daugman licensed Fig. 1 : Classification of biometrics
in 1994 are the reason for all present iris acknowledgment
frameworks and items [12].
