However, unlike displays with 2 dimensional pixel arrays, this technology incorporates pixel stacks, accomplishing a series of goals leading to the capture of a multi-biometric. It is believed to be the first man-made device which can capture 2 or more distinct biometrics from the same region of pixel stacks (forming a surface) at the same ...
From early 2000, some laptops with PC Card support can be equipped with readers; for example, Compaq Armada E500 can be optionally equipped by external fingerprint reader since 2000 - the reader module was released by Toshiba. [12]
The first fingerprint-based cancelable biometric system was designed and developed by Tulyakov et al. [60] Essentially, cancelable biometrics perform a distortion of the biometric image or features before matching. The variability in the distortion parameters provides the cancelable nature of the scheme.
Class on the Bertillon system in France in 1911. Class on the Bertillon system in France in 1911. Alphonse Bertillon (French: [bɛʁtijɔ̃]; 22 April 1853 – 13 February 1914) was a French police officer and biometrics researcher who applied the anthropological technique of anthropometry to law enforcement creating an identification system based on physical measurements.
Viable hand geometry devices have been manufactured since the early 1970s, making hand geometry the first biometric to find widespread computerized use. [4] Robert Miller realized the distinctive features of hand sizes and shapes could be used for identification and patented the first automated hand geometry device at the Stanford Research Institute in 1971.
Wearable devices that produce biometric data like heart rate, motion and positioning, body temperature and sleep, allow for real-time information to be collated and analysed by professionals. This may allow patterns between individual behaviours and performance to be made, allowing for the creation of personalised training programs for athletes.

This biometric symbol is usually printed on the cover of biometric (ICAO compliant) passports. A biometric passport (also known as an electronic passport, e-passport or a digital passport) is a traditional passport that has an embedded electronic microprocessor chip, which contains biometric information that can be used to authenticate the identity of the passport holder.
