Biometrics is the measurement and analysis of unique physical or behavioral characteristics (e.g. fingerprint, voice patterns, facial recognition, etc.) especially as a means of verifying personal identity.
Fingerprint authentication is a type of automated biometric technology that involves verifying the match of two fingerprints.
Over the past few years, with the evolution of cost effective, high-performance swipe based sensors, fingerprint authentication has evolved into an attractive feature for consumer and corporate devices.
