About biometric sensors
A biometric sensor is a transducer, which converts the biometric input signal (fingerprints, voice, vein patterns, or facial traits) of its user into an electrical signal. In order to authenticate any biometric measurement, a biometric sensor is required to scan the user's fingerprint or voice or face in the hardware set.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global biometric sensors market to grow at a CAGR of 10.14% during the period 2016-2020.
