Biometric System Market: Introduction

A biometric system is a technology to identify individuals through biological data, such as fingerprints, DNA, voice waves, retina, hand geometry, and others. It analyzes physiological or biological characteristics specific to each individual to be able to verify their identity. The integration of biometric systems is continuously increasing in smartphones for surveillance and security due to the increasing cyber crimes and terror attacks. Biometric data protection is swiftly replacing the conventional methods of securing data through pin codes and photographs in educational industries, government centers, and workplaces. Various government authorities have made it mandatory for every individual to enroll themselves in biometric systems. These data will assist to differentiate every person and decrease the chance of fraudulent activities.

Biometric System Market: Dynamics

The growing adoption of biometrics systems in smartphones for different application, increasing use of biometrics in the banking industry especially to make a transaction, and growing application of the biometric system in healthcare industries are some factors driving the growth of the market across the globe. Moreover, the growing usage of biometrics at workplaces to maintain a database of employees, track employees’ attendance, and punctuality are factors fueling the growth of the global biometric system market. Other market driving factors includes the increasing adoption of biometric system in the government sector for a range of applications, such as ration card enrollment, voter registration in low literacy economy, e-passport, and identifying individuals. For instance, India’s national ID–Aadhar program is one of the biggest biometric databases in the globe enabling government agencies to deliver retail services without the physical presence of an officer at a given place. 

The usage of biometric systems for criminal identification is driving the demand for biometric systems across the globe. Opportunities for the global biometric systems market can be created by technology advancement, up-gradation for AI-controlled biometric devices. However, the high cost of smart biometric devices, security concerns, lack of skilled workforce to handle biometric devices, and data storage are the main factors that restrain the growth of the global biometric systems market during the forecast period.
