The eyes have it

Abstract

Describes a biometric security system, the EyeDentify retinal scanner, which works by mapping the vascular pattern on the retinal portion of the eyeball, using a specially designed camera. Outlines the three modes of the retinal scanner: enrolment, verification and recognition and the uniqueness and stability of retinal identification. Concludes that owing to the unmatched accuracy and ability to run in a time “recognition” mode, retinal scanners are utilized in the world’s most secure areas.
