Identify at least three differences between finger print recognition and iris recognition.
Answers
Fingerprint recognition is a popular security feature in the newer generation of smartphones and is a well-known biometric technology. Since Microsoft introducing iris recognition feature in its smartphones, there were comparisons between these two biometric traits. We will be discussing both these biometric technologies, their capabilities and security features.
Iris and fingerprint recognition both have higher accuracy, reliability and simplicity as compared to other biometric traits. These attributes make iris and fingerprint recognition perform better and a particularly promising security solution in today’s society. The process starts by capturing the images of iris and fingerprint which are then pre-processed to remove any noise effects. The distinguishing features are then extracted and matched to find similarity between both the feature sets. The matching scores that are generated from the individual recognizers are given to the decision module which decides if a person is genuine or an impostor.
