FROST & SULLIVAN RELEASES NEW ANALYSIS IN BIOMETRICS SECTOR

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan's Biometrics division (http://www.autoid.frost.com) regarding the World Hand Geometry Hand geometry is a biometric that identifies users by the shape of their hands. Hand geometry readers measure a user's hand along many dimensions and compare those measurements to measurements stored in a file.  Biometrics Market and the World Voice Verification Biometrics Market is now available. For full details please contact Julia Paulson, North American North American

High implementation costs and large size of hand geometry readers are suppressing the growth prospects of hand geometry technology across the world. Participants are facing stiff challenges from other biometric technologies, particularly from the relatively small and inexpensive finger-scan devices in applications that both technologies target.

In addition, the large size of hand geometry readers restricts their use in certain applications and poses challenges in implementing the technology in applications that require small user interfaces such as PC/network security and wireless device security.

However, hand geometry technology still holds an edge with their high durability, throughput The speed with which a computer processes data. It is a combination of internal processing speed, peripheral speeds (I/O) and the efficiency of the operating system and other system software all working together.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (www.autoid.frost.com), "World Hand Geometry Biometrics Market," reveals that this market generated $27.2 million as revenue in 2002 and is likely to reach $223.5 million by 2009.

"Hand geometry solutions are extensively used in time and attendance and physical access control applications," says Frost & Sullivan Biometrics Program Manager Prianka Chopra. "The technology's performance remains unaffected by soiled or dirty hands. This attribute is especially useful in foundries and construction sites where workers perform a fair degree of manual labor."

The "World Hand Geometry Biometrics Market," part of the Global Biometrics Subscription, examines the world hand geometry market by geographic regions (North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. ; Europe Middle East Africa (EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) Refers to that region of the world. For example, one might see products packaged differently for the UK, EMEA and Asia Pacific markets. ); Asia Pacific; and Latin America Latin America, the Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, and French-speaking countries (except Canada) of North America, South America, Central America, and the West Indies. ) and application segments (physical access control; time and attendance; and others). The study provides a rigorous analysis of each geographic region and application segment, seven-year revenue forecasts, and an overview of emerging market trends that will enable participants to assess the current and future growth prospects. Executive summaries and interviews are available to the press.

Voice Verification Market Calls for Increased Investment and Implementation

Voice Verification technology enables individuals to be reliably, rapidly and cost effectively verified based on the physical characteristics of their voice. The market for this technology is emerging to address the security demands of telephony-based applications.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (www.AutoID.frost.com), "World Voice Verification Biometrics Markets," reveals that revenue in this industry totaled $7.5 million in 2002 and is projected to reach $328.4 million by 2009.

It implies that the new feature or program can be installed and used without problems. Contrast with "transparent," which implies that there is no discernible change after installation.  of voice verification technology with speech recognition allows multi-factor authentication (1) Verifying the integrity of a transmitted message.
