What Is Iris Recognition?
The conceptual premise –
The texture of the iris can be the source of an “iris code” that is unique to that particular iris and is stable across a range of practical imaging conditions.

What Is Iris Biometrics?
The Int’l Biometrics Group (IBG) projects iris biometrics to grow more than four-fold, from 174 M in
2009 to 730 M in 2014, faster than the overall biometrics market.
