Global Biometrics Monitoring Systems Market 2015-2019

Market overview of the global biometrics monitoring systems market

Technavio’s market research analysts predict the global biometrics monitoring systems market to grow at a CAGR of more than 17% from 2015 to 2019. With the increased adoption of mobile devices in various sectors such as healthcare, government, BFSI, and transportation, portable biometrics has emerged as a key trend to drive this market.

Implementation of portable biometric enables capturing physical features of an individual to compare it against a database for the sake of real-time verification. Fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, and iris recognition segments of this are witnessing a rapid transition to portable devices, particularly for law enforcement purposes. To capitalize on this opportunity, many telecom operators are expected to launch wireless mobile biometrics during the forecast period.

Segmentation of the global biometrics monitoring systems market by technology

• Fingerprint biometrics  
• Facial biometrics              
• Voice biometrics
• Hand geometry biometrics
• Iris recognition

Facial recognition technology accounted for a market share of approximately 20% in 2014. Facial recognition is one of the most user-friendly biometric technologies that provides a high level of accuracy. The adoption of facial recognition is expected to gain significant traction in the transportation and healthcare sector during the forecast period.

Segmentation of the global biometrics monitoring systems market by end users            

• Government     
• Transportation 
• Healthcare         
• BFSI

An increasing number of travelers necessitates proper security measures in the transportation sector. Countries such as Malaysia, Australia, Germany, Nigeria, and the UK have started issuing e-passports across their airports.
