Biometrics allows a person to be identified based on physical characteristics that can be used to identify individuals. For example fingerprint mapping, facial recognition, retina scans. Biometrics identifiers include unique ways, for individual identification such as DNA, fingerprints, voice for authentication purposes. Moreover, biometrics data can be used to access information in devices like smartphones.
Market Dynamics:
The adoption of biometric technology is majorly get attributed due to the increasing adoption of biometrics-based authentication devices, by many end use industries such as healthcare, BFSI, commercial, and the government. For instance, the Government General Hospital (GGH), in Andhra Pradesh, India, has adopted RFID Technology, for preventing the kidnapping. The state government has started using an RFID tagging system, in this the mother, and child will be equipped with a tracking tag, and furthermore, this initiative will help to reduce the number of child-lifting from the hospital.
In addition, rising incidences of identity theft, is boosting the adoption of a biometrics authentication module in consume electronics devices such as mobile, tablets, are other factor boosting the adoption of biometrics technology.
However, the initial cost of biometrics technology is higher as compared to their alternatives, which is expected to hamper the growth of the biometric technology market, over the forecast period.
