The word itself is a combination of two Greek words: bio, which means &#8216;life,&#8217; and metric, which means &#8216;to measure.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><strong>When Did It Originate?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using key biologic markers to identify individuals goes back thousands of years. As far back as 500BC, we have evidence that Babylonian clay tablets used for business transactions included fingerprints.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1800s Biometrics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alphonse Bertillon, a Persian anthropologist and French police officer in the late 19th century, developed a method of identification based on physical characteristics. He used an anthropological technique called anthropometry,<\/p>\n<p>Bertillon went on to codify his system, which came to be known as the Bertillon System. It was defined by an individual&#8217;s physical characteristics such as height, trunk measurement, front and side photographs, scars, birthmarks and other metrics. It was used for decades in both in Europe and the United States until fingerprint identification supplanted it.<\/p>\n<p >No products found.<\/p>\n<h2>Biometric Scanner Limitations<\/h2>\n<h3>Types of Biometric Security<\/h3>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PyQsGxSUlfE<\/p>\n<p>Current biometric security systems operate using different physical measurements. Here are some of the more common types:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fingerprint Identification<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/illustrations\/finger-fingerprint-security-digital-2081169\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/finger-2081169_640-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/> <\/a>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figcaption>Image from Pixabay<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\">While using fingerprints for identification began in theearly 20th century, the first automated fingerprint identification systems didn\u2019t start to\u00a0be used until the 1970s. Today, fingerprint scanners are available on many security systems, as well as on many smart phones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Retinal Scanning<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">Your retina is a circle of tissue on the back side of your eye. It contains the rods and cones that translate the focused light from your eye\u2019s lens into neural signals that your optic nerve passes to your brain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400;\">There are many tiny blood vessels feeding the cells of your retina. Those blood vessels form a pattern that is\u00a0unique to each individual. Retinal scanners can map those blood vessels and store them in a data base for recall.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/illustrations\/eye-iris-biometrics-2771183\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/eye-2771183_640-300x300.png\" alt=\"retinal scanning\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/> <\/a>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figcaption>Image from Pixabay<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p><strong>Other Ocular Scans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">There are two other types of ocular (eye) scans that are separate and distinct from retinal scans. They are iris scans\u00a0and scleral vein recognition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Iris Scans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">Iris scans map the unique pattern of an individual\u2019s iris, which is the colored area of the eye behind the cornea that contains the pupil. The advantage of the iris scan is that it can be performed from up to ten feet away and is as simple as taking a high-resolution photo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scleral Vein Scans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">Scleral vein scanning is a recent technology. Scleral veins are the veins found in the whites of your eyes. They also have a unique pattern based on each individual\u2019s eye structure. It uses the Y-shaped branches of veins which are multi-layered in the sclera to provide a high degree of recognition accuracy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Voice Recognition<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/vectors\/voice-recognition-recognize-google-4414962\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/voice-4414962_640-298x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"298\" height=\"300\" \/> <\/a>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figcaption>Image from Pixabay<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400;\">Voice recognition systems are computer programs that parse the human voice. They break down speech into its component\u00a0parts, including timbre, modulation, tone and cadence to identify one individual from another.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400;\">There is some doubt how secure this identification is, however. One reporter used his identical twin to fool a banking system into thinking his twin was him. The best estimate of current voice recognition systems is that they are around 90% accurate.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--style-light\"  data-aawp-product-id=\"B09KRLLVVW\" data-aawp-product-title=\"EZVIZ 4MP Indoor Camera Pan\/Tilt Baby Pet Monitor with AI Human and Pet Detection Voice Activity Detection Waving-Hand Recognition Starlight Lens Color Vision 2.4\/5 GHz Dual-Band Wi-Fi | C6\" data-aawp-geotargeting=\"true\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09KRLLVVW?tag=alarmreviews03-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1\" title=\"EZVIZ 4MP Indoor Camera, Pan\/Tilt Baby Pet Monitor with AI Human and...\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41TWQPlOhrL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"EZVIZ 4MP Indoor Camera, Pan\/Tilt Baby Pet Monitor with AI Human and...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09KRLLVVW?tag=alarmreviews03-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1\" title=\"EZVIZ 4MP Indoor Camera, Pan\/Tilt Baby Pet Monitor with AI Human and...\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">\n            EZVIZ 4MP Indoor Camera, Pan\/Tilt Baby Pet Monitor with AI Human and...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>\u2714\u3010Impressive video quality in 2K\u207a\u3011The C6 camera excels at seeing everything clearly and vividly.

They measure the length, surface area, thickness and width of a user\u2019s hand. A limitation of hand geometry security systems is that they cannot perform one-to-many comparisons but are limited to one-to-one verification.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"SwipeClock GT-400 Hand Geometry Clock\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nf8gwV-AXIw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Facial Recognition<\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"How Does Facial Recognition Work?\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/agGEDdj05U0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">Facial recognition systems use relationships between various facial features to identify one face from another. The distance between the eyes, or the distance from the chin to the tip of the nose are captured and stored in a data base.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">Facial recognition systems are used in many security systems today, as they have the advantage of being able to be used at a considerable distance from the subject, making them valuable where large numbers of people are in attendance, such as airports or sporting events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Smart Phone Facial Recognition<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"How face ID works?

For example, Apple\u2019s iPhone X uses an infrared projector to send 30,000 dots onto the face of the user and uses pattern matching to unlock the phone.<\/p>\n<p>The LG V30 smart phone combines facial, voice and fingerprint information to provide increased phone security. Using multiple security devices to prevent unauthorized access is becoming more common in today\u2019s security systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Biometric Scanner Limitations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Limitations of Bio-metric Security || Loopholes of Fingerprint Sensor || GEEKY VIRUS ||\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lrjjfhPaJ5E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>These scanners are not without limitations. Numerous successful attempts to fool biometric sensors have been successful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3D Head Models<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some University of North Carolina (UNC) researchers were able to fool four out of five security systems that depended on facial recognition. They took photographs of people\u2019s facial features and used them to produce 3D models of those individual\u2019s heads.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fingerprint Spoofing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many fingerprint recognition systems have been spoofed by techniques as simple as creating a latex finger complete with a fingerprint. An early iPhone could be unlocked when a picture of a fingerprint was transferred to glass.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s more sophisticated fingerprint scanners include other sensors to verify that the fingerprint is actually attached to a living finger. These include temperature and moisture sensors and have proven to be much harder to fool.<\/p>\n<h3>Is There a Need for Biometric Security?<\/h3>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/photos\/question-mark-why-problem-solution-2123967\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/question-mark-2123967_640.jpg\" alt=\"question mark\" width=\"640\" height=\"387\" \/> <\/a>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figcaption>Image from Pixabay<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Yes, with limits. While today\u2019s increasingly complex world makes security systems unavoidable, there are also privacy concerns that also must be addressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fourth Amendment Protections<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the United States, the fourth amendment to the Constitution protects us from unreasonable search and seizure, It also protects us from warrantless searches. The fourth amendment protection against warrantless searches was a response to the British colonial practice of judges granting \u2018Writs of Assistance\u2019 to British soldiers.<\/p>\n<p>Those writs were unspecified about what was being searched for as well as the people or area that could be searched. In effect, judges were telling soldiers that they could just go into a township and search everyone for everything. These Writs of Assistance were one of the key factors that caused the colonists to revolt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patel v. Facebook<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many privacy advocates opine that the use of surveillance systems violate fourth amendment protections. In a recent decision by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, Patel v. Facebook, the court ruled that Facebook had violated the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) because they used face recognition technology on the users\u2019 photographs without the users\u2019 knowledge and consent.<\/p>\n<h2>How Biometric Security Systems Will Work in the 21st Century<\/h2>\n<p><iframe title=\"The future of biometric authentication\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ho__5EB_6-U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>As we move further into the 21st century, we anticipate that Closed Circuit Television Cameras (CCTV) will continue to proliferate throughout our cities, airports and sporting venues. Court cases will challenge the fourth amendment ramifications of these cameras and their use to gather metadata.<\/p>\n<p>Security systems will become increasingly multi-sensored, combining various biometric recognition factors such as fingerprint, retinal scans and voice recognition systems. We anticipate this increasingly multi-layered approach to biometric security systems will continue as even more unique biometric identifiers become available.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>From smart phones to airports and from sporting events to strolling down the street to your favorite restaurant, biometric surveillance and security are here to stay. At the same time, privacy concerns and constitutional protections need to be considered and enforced.<\/p>\n<p>How this will all work out? That\u2019s the big question that tomorrow\u2019s ethicists and courts will have to answer.<\/p>\n<p>Featured Image from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/photos\/smartphone-finger-fingerprint-4562985\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Pixabay<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Latest Posts<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/3-ways-to-know-your-alarm-system-is-outdated\/\">3 Ways to know your Alarm System is Outdated<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/vivint-vs-adt\/\">Vivint vs ADT<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/top-outdoor-motion-lights\/\">7 Best Outdoor Motion Sensor Lights for Homes<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/top-home-security-systems-atlanta-ga\/\">Top Home Security Systems in Atlanta, GA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/alarm-reviews.net\/what-to-do-when-your-security-company-contract-runs-out\/\">How to Cancel Your Alarm Contract<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the dawn of the computer age, systems have been secured by typing in a user name and a password.
