biometric scanners

Biometric scanners are devices that identify or verify individuals by analyzing unique physical or behavioral traits, such as fingerprints, facial features, or iris patterns. These scanners capture the distinctive characteristics, convert them into digital data, and compare them to stored profiles to confirm identity. They are commonly used for secure access to buildings, devices, or systems, providing a reliable and efficient way to verify who someone is without using passwords. Biometric technology enhances security by leveraging traits that are difficult to imitate or share, making authentication faster and more accurate.
