Biometric-Iris Scan

Biometric is the way of known a person based on physiological or behavioral characteristic Biometric applications include workstation, network, and domain access, single sign-on, application logon, data protection, remote access to resources, transaction security and Web security. The most popular biometric technologies are fingerprints, face, palm/hand geometry, handwriting, iris, retinal, and voice. We are to explain about iris scans that can to be solution to provide for any applications. The features of iris scan are a protected organ which makes the identification for life long time. The iris scan therefore serves as a life long password which the person must never remember. Iris scan technology today is very unique characteristics of the iris. Iris scans system use small, high-quality cameras to capture a black and white high-resolution photograph of the iris. Therefore, iris scan biometric may be more useful for higher risk interactions, such as building access. That is also most used that system at supermarket. Then, the type of biometric scanning works with glasses and contact lenses in place. The iris is different by several characteristics including ligaments, furrows, ridges, crypts, rings, corona, freckles, and a sigzag collarette. That is also the component for iris scan technology to use for any application. The applications used of biometric iris are used in passport, aviation security, access security, hospital, and national watch lists. Future applications will include e-commerce information security, authorization, building entry, automobile ignition, forensic applications, computer network access, PINs, and personal passwords. Actually, biometric iris scan have many advantages. The advantages are highly protected, internal organ of the eye. Then, that also externally visible, patterns imaged from a distance. Besides that, the iris patterns are extremely complex and difficult to duplicate, very low false acceptance rate and false rejection rate. Then, those also have disadvantages such as expensive implementation compare to fingerprint and facial recognition and requires user's eye to be in close proximity to the sensor, more disturb to the user for operation. As a conclusion, biometric today is more useful for person or any application to protect obstacle. Especially biometric iris scans that have many applications can use from that. That also have advantages and disadvantages but that are can improved the technology today to become better.
