Smart Computing Article - Biometrics

Q: How do biometrics devices work? Regardless of what data a biometric system analyzes, or how it collects that data, the process is conceptually the same. In all verification methods, a user must first enroll in the system by presenting his credentials to establish a baseline measurement for future comparison. A capture system (a fingerprint scanner, microphone, or camera) records a set of biological patterns (patterns on the tip of a finger, vocal audio qualities, or blood vessels in the iris) called a
