> Technology > Iris recognition technology
The unique pattern in the human iris is formed around 1 - 2 years old and this uniqueness is kept throughout lifetime. No two eyes are alike, even for left and right iris of an individual. So iris recognition is known as the most powerful biometric technology. It is not only most accurate but also fast, scalable and non-contact authentication technology.
Accurate
Every iris is absolutely unique. None of other biometric recognition technology can lower the FAR(False Accept Rate) below 0.0001% which iris recognition technology achieve very easily. There is no argument about the fact that iris recognition technology is the best and most accurate among biometrics.
Fast
Looking at speed in conjunction with accuracy, there's simply no other technology that can deliver high accuracy authentication in anything close to the real-time performance of iris recognition.
Scalable
As iris data templates require only 512 bytes of storage per iris, very large databases can be managed and speedily searched without degradation of performance or accuracy.
Non-invasive
Iris recognition is non-contact and quick, offering unmatched accuracy when compared to any other security alternative, from distances as far as 10 to 60 cm.
