authentication which is biometric authentication. That is basically using personal finger print or (and) iris recognition. In those recognition system‚ biometric reader scans finger print or iris recognition and compares biometric authentication (data at later time) with biometric enrolment (primary data). Then those are matched each other and biometric readers response whether false (rejected) or true (authenticated). The way is actually better than just setting PIN number but biometric recognition need

nowadays is the biometric system. It resulted from the collaboration of multiple scientific fields which attempted to automate human recognition based on a unique physical attribute. Currently‚ a person can be identified by multitude of different metrics including their fingerprints. A sensor is used to capture and store it in an electronic format. This information can be used later to identify or authenticate a person to a system. Attendance Monitoring System using Biometric Fingerprint Scanner
