PRESENTATION ON

BIOMETRICS

BY: SIMARDEEP
WHAT IS BIOMETRICS?

• The term biometrics is composed of two words − bio (Greek word for life) and metrics (measurements).
Biometrics is a branch of information technology that aims towards establishing one’s identity based on

personal traits.

• WHAT IS A BIOMETRIC SYSTEM


• A biometric system is a technology which takes an individual’s physiological, behavioral, or both traits as
input, analyzes it, and identifies the individual as a genuine or malicious user.
BIOMETRIC SYSTEM CAN BE DIVIDED INTO FOUR BASIC COMPONENTS:
Input Interface (Sensors) :It is the sensing component of a biometrics
system that converts human biological data into digital form.

● Processing unit :the processing component is a microprocessor, digital signal processor (DSP), or computer
that processes the data captured from the sensors.

● Database store :the database stores the enrolled sample, which is recalled to perform a match at the time of
authentication. For identification, there can be any memory from random access memory (RAM), flash

• EPROM, or a data server. For verification, a removable storage


element like a contact or contactless smart card is used.
● Output interface :the output interface communicates the decision of the biometric system to enable the
access to the user. This can be a simple serial communication protocol RS232, or the higher bandwidth USB
protocol. It could also be TCP/IP protocol, radio frequency identification (RFID), bluetooth, or one of the many
cellular protocols.
GENERAL WORKING OF A BIOMETRIC SYSTEM

● There are four general steps a biometric system takes to perform identification and verification −

1. Acquire live sample from candidate. (Using sensors)


2. Extract prominent features from sample. (Using processing unit)
3. Compare live sample with samples stored in database. (Using algorithms)
4. Present the decision. (Accept or reject the candidate.)
 APPLICATION AREAS OF
BIOMETRICS :
Identifying criminals by forensics.
Executing online e-commerce transactions.
Fraud and theft reduction.
Controlling workplace access.
Fingerprint recognition
hand geometry recognition system
Facial recognition system
FINGERPRINT RECOGNITION SYSTEM

● Every person has a unique fingerprint which is composed of ridges,


grooves, and direction of the lines. There are three basic patterns of
ridges namely, arch, loop, and whorl. The uniqueness of fingerprint is
determined by these features as well as minutiae features such as
bifurcation and spots (ridge endings).
FACIAL RECOGNITION SYSTEM

Facial recognition is based on determining shape and size of jaw, chin, shape and location of the eyes,

eyebrows, nose, lips, and cheekbones. 2D facial scanners start reading face geometry and recording it on

the grid. The facial geometry is transferred to the database in terms of points. The comparison algorithms

perform face matching and come up with the results.


HAND GEOMETRY RECOGNITION SYSTEM

• It includes measuring length and width of palm, surface area, length and
position of fingers, and overall bone structure of the hand. A person’s hand

is unique and can be used to identify a person from others.
