With the advance of technology and the availability of microprocessors in the 20th century, various projects in development produced scanning devices and accompanying software applications. According to the Cambridge Advanced Learner’s English dictionary, Biometric is “referring to detailed information about someone’s body, such as the patterns of colors in their eyes, which can be used to prove who they are.” But it goes beyond this definition. There are a variety of different scanning methods and

characteristics. Biometric devices grant users access to programs, systems, or rooms by analyzing some biometric identifier, such as a fingerprint or eye pattern. Two commonly used types of biometric security devices are fingerprint readers and iris recognition systems. A fingerprint reader captures the curves and indentations of a fingerprint. Fingerprint readers can be set up to perform different functions for different fingers. For example, the index finger could start a program, and the ring finger

Case Study: Emirates Airline English Language Proficiency Prevents Air Disasters Emirates Airlines Certifies Crews with Test that Simulates Radiotelephonic Communication In 1996, 349 passengers and crew were killed when two planes collided mid-air over New Dehli. This accident was attributed in part to language barriers that retarded radiotelephony communication between the flight and ground crew. According to aviation experts Jason Park and Tyler Kong, “…the lack of ability for all parties involved

INTELLIGENT EXPERT SYSTEM BIOMETRICS FOR ANTITERRORISM ABSTRACT: ‘Terrorism’ is one of the highly pronounced words nowadays. Hijacks are taking a lion’s share when we talk about terrorism. This is mainly due to the intrusion of the terrorists into a country by using fake passports or related forged documents. Our project is intended to minimize this to the maximum extent, using the help of biometrics. We have taken finger print and Iris scanning to implement this project, since

biometrics are utilised to ensure that the correct people have access to the products and services to which they are entitled. The field of biometrics covers a wide scope of technologies, including but not limited to facial, iris, fingerprint and DNA recognition. Within the field of biometrics, there are generally two sources of identification classifications: physiological and behavioural. Physiological characteristics are those that we are born with and do not usually change (iris and fingerprints)

Both the iris and retina are two of the most unique biometric traits exploited in two of the most accurate biometric verification and identification methods currently in use today. Retina recognition offers an astounding one in 10,000,000 comparative accuracy ratio while iris imaging offers a slightly lesser comparative accuracy ratio at one in 131,000. This puts the two at the top of the list in comparative accuracy when it comes to the common biometric methods. Although both have their clear advantages

“In 80 years of fingerprint classification, no two identical sets have been found” (NCIP 1). In Pudd'nhead Wilson, Mark Twain uses the symbol of hands to show that people’s true identities can be exposed at any time, and they can always be identified. A fingerprint is used to identify an individual and it does not change. An illustration of this is during the trial of Tom Driscoll. “Every human being carries with him, from his cradle to his grave certain physical marks which do not change their character
