Iris Recognition

Frankin Cheung

Abstract:

A study of a human recognition by use of biometrics known as Iris Recognition is
provided. Based on the technology invented by Dr. John G. Daugman, an attempt of
implementing a workable system was made. Although the attempt did not succeed in
every aspect, "Iris Recognition" is forecast to play a role in a wide range of other
applications in which a person's identity must be established or confirmed. These
include passport control, electronic commerce, entitlements payments, premises entry,
access to privileged information, authorizations, forensic and police applications,
computer login, or any other transaction in which personal identification currently
relies just on special possessions or secrets (keys, cards, documents, passwords, PINs).
