Iris Scanning

In the context of aviation, Iris Scanning refers to a biometric identification method that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of the irises of an individual's eyes. It is an automated method of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of one or both of the irises of an individual's eyes, whose complex patterns are unique, stable, and can be seen from some distance. In aviation, this technology is used to enhance security measures, particularly in the areas of access control and identity verification. For instance, it can be used to verify the identity of pilots, crew members, and passengers, or to control access to sensitive areas within an airport or aircraft. The technology is highly reliable and non-invasive, making it suitable for use in a busy and dynamic environment such as an airport. It also offers a high level of accuracy, as the iris is an internal organ that is well protected against damage and wear by a highly transparent and sensitive membrane.
