Retinal & Iris Scanners By: Derek Yoder
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
Equipment Retina scan apparatus Unique image
Iris scanner
Uses Hospitals Substitute for passports Computer Accsess High-end security: Military Power plants Computer Accsess Hospitals Substitute for passports Prevent welfare fraud
Errors/ limits Both highly accurate Privacy issues limit their use Sometimes images can be compromised
