Introduction to Biometrics
It is a form of information that helps in identifying one's physical characters such as psychosomatic, behavioral characters, etc. The term Biometrics is made from two words - 'Bio (Greek work)' and 'Metrics' where bio means life and metrics indicate measurements.
The term "biometrics" is derived from the Greek words bio (life) and metric (to measure). For our use, biometrics refers to technologies for measuring and analyzing a person's physiological or behavioral characteristics. These characteristics are unique to individuals hence can be used to verify or identify a person.
