"Next Generation Biometric Technologies Market - Global Forecast & Analysis
(2012 - 2017) By Types (Fingerprint, Palm, Face, Iris / Retina, Vein, Voice,
Signature and others), Applications (Government, Defense, Travel &
Immigration, Home Security, Banking & finance, Consumer electronics,
Healthcare, Commercial security and others)"
Biometric technology is an advanced technique for the identification of
humans, based on their characteristics or traits. These traits can be face,
fingerprint, iris, voice, signature, palm, vein, and DNA. The existing methods
of human identification such as identification documents and PIN are not able
to cope up with the growing demand for stringent security, which gives a high
growth opportunity for the use of biometric technology. This technology is
very popular also because biometric characters like face, fingerprint, hand,
etc. cannot be lost, stolen, or easily forged.
This report covers various biometric authentications such as face recognition,
fingerprint recognition, iris recognition, palm recognition, vein recognition,
signature recognition, and DNA recognition. Out of all the biometric
authentications, face recognition, finger recognition, and iris recognition
are commonly used in most of the applications. Iris has a significant scope in
near future due to its high accuracy rate and low false acceptance rate; which
is between 0.0001% and 0.94%.
This report segregates the overall biometric technology market into various
application areas such as government, defense, banking and finance, travel and
immigration, healthcare, consumer electronics, commercial security, and home
security. Increasing security threats, unauthorized infiltration across the
borders, unauthorized immigration, illegal transaction at the ATMs, etc. give
rise to biometric technology market. One of the major drivers for this market
is government funding for biometric technology for deployment across the
globe. Biometric technology is mostly used in applications like government,
travel, immigration, banking and finance, and defense.

Canada, and Mexico. Europe is further segregated into Germany, U.K., France,
Italy, and others. APAC is segregated into Australia, China, Japan, South
Korea, and India. ROW is segregated into Africa and Middle East.
Summary
Biometric technology is the verification of human by their characteristics
like face, fingerprint, voice, iris, palm, signature, vein, and DNA. DNA
recognition and vein recognition are the latest and most advanced types of
biometric authentication. Fingerprint recognition, face recognition, and iris
recognition are commonly used in almost all the application areas. The demand
for biometric technologies has increased manifold in the recent years. The
basic reason behind this is the rise in the number of terrorist activities;
coupled with multiplicity of theft on the part of crucial data and
information; which have raised concerns regarding national security. Today,
biometric technologies are used in several verticals such as consumer
electronics, government organizations, airports, corporations and so on, where
the security remains the prime concern.
Biometric technology market can be categorized into different applications
such as government, travel and immigration, banking and finance, consumer
electronics, home security, commercial security and healthcare. The most
common application areas in the field of biometric technology are government,
banking, finance, travel and immigration, and defense.
Biometrics provides a high degree of security and convenience, which ensures
confidentiality of personal information. This is superior to traditional
passwords/PINs as these are easily guessed, forgotten or copied; tokens can be
stolen or misplaced. Biometric technology helps in preventing the theft as the
information's are stored in the form of a digital record in the database which
makes it highly impossible to reconstruct, decrypt or manipulate. Biometric
uses biological characteristics or features, which are inseparable from a
person; therefore, reducing the threat of loss or theft.
This report describes the market trends, drivers, and challenges of biometric
technology market and forecast the biometric technology market from 2012 to
2017, based on applications of biometric technology and geography. This report
covers geographies like North America, Europe, APAC, and ROW (Rest of the
World).
In biometric technology market, fingerprint recognition contributes for the
largest percentage share, followed by face and iris; whereas "travel and
immigration" is the major application; followed by government and defense. In
geographic analysis, North America is the market leader followed by Europe and
APAC.
The major companies involved in biometric technology market are Sagem Morpho
(U.S.), NEC Corporation (Japan), Cross Match Technologies (U.S.), AuthenTec
(U.S.), RCG Holdings (Hong Kong), ZK software (China), etc.
