... party companies1. However, Biometrics have somewhat complex, but simple qualities. Criterion B: IT Background of the Issue As previously mentioned, applications for Biometrics are many. One of them is iris scanning. Extensive research and experience demonstrated that the iris was the other (apart from the fingerprint) unique trait that each human differed from each other, including one's other eye. First, a picture is taken using available CCD camera technology and locating the presence of and iris within the video image. Concentric circles are then created to distinguish zones of analysis. By the application of 2-D Gabor filters, the texture of the iris is examined to distinguished features within these zones. From this information, a 256-byte iris code is produced as a representation of the features of the individual iris2. Past technologies have based their critiques on common points. For example, fingerprint analysis; hand geometry, iris, retina scanning, and recently facial recognition our ...
