More and more interest in technology and biometric applications

very positive future prospects for the technologies and biometric applications that in 2015 they represent a market worth $ 13.7 billion expected to grow at more than 30 billion in 2021.

Predictably will the demand for these technologies into consumer electronics devices, especially smartphones, to drive growth. Built-in sensors for fingerprints arrive by 2021 to two billion pieces per year, with an annual compound growth rate of 40% for the period: if last year were handed over 266 million sensors to the current year is prvede a volume of 372 million pieces deliveries.

Another interesting line, next to that of the protection of their personal data, is that of surveillance solutions: by 2021 a surveillance camera in three will be IP-based and prepared the analysis biometric subject movement.

Among the technologies that take hold they are integrated sensors in consumer devices and the credit and debit cards, iris recognition sensor and facial recognition in smartphones and fingerprint recognition solutions of the veins in the ATMs. Mastercard also is placing particular emphasis on facial recognition technology.

From a regional perspective will be the regions of North America and the Asia-Pacific region constitute the largest markets in terms of volumes, for the sale of biometric devices, but regions such as Latin America and the Middle East will know a boom biometric implementations for banking, personal finance, for administrative and security applications.

The most active companies in the field of biometric technologies are Gemalto, STMicroelectronics, Precise Biometrics and Fingerprint Cards.
