Innovative Trends in Biometrics

Over the past few years medical science has progressed manifold both in terms of treatment as well as new medical discoveries. This applies to the dynamic field of Biometrics too, that has been expanding manifold with its global applications for everyday life. There have been new trends and advanced developments that have been proposed to process and acquire various biometrics change. The challenges that were averted in the past and the probable concerns require be assessed together and incorporating deeply as well.


Therefore the main objective of CRO’s (Clinical Research Organization) apart from conducting clinical trial and biometrics companies today is to keep at pace with the high-end technologies on some new age theoretical development along with the new application trends of biometric applications. It is crucial to delve with both the aspects of the development. The recent biometrics development comprises components like finger vein recognition, 3D and thermal face recognition, forensic speaker recognition, hand geometry recognition, contactless biometric system, multi-biometric template protection, hand geometry recognition, biometric performance evaluation and much more.


Today leading CRO’s having the ability to manage multi-centric studies, for both global and domestic needs in multiple therapeutic areas, also have their own dedicated Biometrics team that specializes in a comprehensive set of services. Some of them are listed below:
