  2. Iris recognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_recognition

    Iris recognition biometric systems apply mathematical pattern-recognition techniques to images of the irises of an individual's eyes.. Iris recognition is an automated method of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of one or both of the irises of an individual's eyes, whose complex patterns are unique, stable, and can be seen from some ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Daugman

    Daugman filed for a patent for his iris recognition algorithm [1] in 1991 while working at the University of Cambridge. [9] The algorithm was first commercialized in the late 1990s. His algorithm automatically recognizes persons in real-time by encoding the random patterns visible in the iris of the eye from some distance, and applying a ...

  9. Biometric identification by country - Wikipedia

    It is designed to expedite travel cross the US-Canada border and makes use of biometric authentication technology, specifically "iris recognition biometric technology". [6] It permits pre-approved members of the program to use self-serve kiosks at airports, reserved lanes at land crossings, or by phoning border officials when entering by water.
