Biometric Identification Systems

Fingerprint Scanners Face Recognition

Voice Analysis Retina Scan

Iris Scan

Biometric Sensors

Semi-conductor that uses algorithms to produce image

Electrical current produced which the sensor uses an analog to digital converter to digitize the image

Image is then saved in a database for future

Biometric Senor collects data
