Biometric System Market Outlook
The Biometric System Market size was USD 42.9 Billion in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 140.61 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 14.1% during 2023 - 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to advanced security mechanisms to combat mounting terrorism and criminal activities.
Biometric is a security system, used for the identification of employees by examination of the physical characteristics or behavior of individual. It is used as a replacement for the traditional identification and security methods, such as pin systems or ID cards. The advantages of biometric systems include the requirement for the presence of the individual access, rather than other forms of identification, which can be misused by quick integration and deployment, good security, and easy implementation.
The COVID-19 pandemic has a significant impact on the biometric system market. Due to the pandemic, demand for contact-based biometric system felled drastically as it influences the spread of the virus. However, demand for contactless biometric is on the rise during the pandemic due to no human interaction in the process.
Biometric System Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Increasing use of biometrics in consumer electronic devices is one of the key factors driving the market growth.
- Rising demand and implementation of biometric systems globally is expected to boost the market growth in the coming years.
