The Global Iris Recognition Market Size is expected to reach USD 17.9 Billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 17.4% during the forecast period 2022 to 2032.

 

Iris recognition is a biometric authentication approach that uses distinctive designs within a ring-shaped region encircling the pupil of each eye to identify them. It is a very dependable and precise recognition approach with exceptionally low erroneous match rates. The purpose of iris recognition is to identify human identity by analyzing the textural qualities of one's iris muscular patterns. Iris recognition processes typically include four phases, which are gathering images, iris differentiation, extracting features, and pattern matching. Because of its high recognition rate, iris recognition has been recognized as one of the finest and most accurate biometric technologies. It has already been used in border control and national security applications. Iris recognition is becoming increasingly popular among governments and business organizations.
