Global Biometric Technology Market By Overview
Biometric Technology Market was valued at US$ 48.8 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 21 % to reach US$ 329.5 billion by 2034.
Biometric technology offers an innovative methodology over customary PIN-based methods. It has a key application and used to protect the sensitive or private data from fake use of a person’s belongings, such as mobile phones, smart cards, ATMs, and access to laptops, desktops, and systems by unique identification system. It uses both psychological along with physiological traits for identification that makes it useful in a range of vital applications, such as law enforcement, national security, business transactions, personal information, enterprise and e-governance, and others.
For security identification and authentication, biometric devices are employed. These gadgets have the ability to identify a user and then accurately demonstrate whether the identified person is who they say they are. Utilizing automated methods that minimize human interaction, biometric security systems identify and verify a person's identity by unique physiological or behavioral traits, like voice recognition, iris recognition, face photos, fingerprints, and face recognition. An individual's biometric template and characteristic data are compared in biometric authentication technology. The objective is to verify if the people indeed resemble the people who have claimed to be them. Moreover, the systems match behavioral or physical traits to information in a recognized database.
