The biometric system market was valued at US$ 43 billion in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5% between 2022 and 2028
The biometrics system is used for authentication and identification of individuals by analyzing and measuring their fingerprints, iris, voice, face, hand geometry, palm print, signature, typing pattern, and others. A biometrics system is used to secure sensitive data and avoid fraudulent use of ATMs, mobile phones, smart cards, access to desktops, laptops, and networks. Thus, the growing demand for authentication and identification in commercial and industrial sector is boosting the growth of biometric systems.
MARKET DYNAMICS
Key factors attributing toward the growth of biometric systems include rising adoption of advanced technology over traditional PIN-based methods and increasing applications of biometric solutions in the commercial and e-commerce. Deployment of fingerprint and iris recognition is gaining high momentum in office buildings and government buildings to secure high amount of confidential information. As biometric solutions help in enhancing security and restricting entry of unauthorized individuals in airports, office premises, shopping complexes, and other confidential spaces, its market will continue to propel during the forecast period.

The report analyzes factors, such as drivers, restraints, opportunities, and future trends, affecting the biometric system market. It also provides an exhaustive PEST analysis of the factors impacting the biometric system market.
IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Biometric systems use different scanners to confirm the identity of individuals by measuring behavioral or physiological patterns. There are a few contactless biometric systems that do not need direct touch to perform measurements; however, fingerprint verification systems demand physical appearance of user to make direct physical contact with a scanner to ensure system to read and measure characteristics properly. The system requiring physical presence might boost the chances of cross-contamination. This factor negatively impacted the penetration of touch-based fingerprint biometric devices. However, during the recovery phase of biometric system, the adoption of biometric system with no direct human touch is increasing. The demand for iris and voice recognition experienced a rise to curb the spread of COVID-19 virus.
