Peter O'Neill, President of findBIOMETRICS states that, "Two areas stood out quite powerfully this year as being the most significant milestones/announcements for the Biometric Industry.
First, the growth in the consumer/commercial/public markets for biometrics. This includes increased use of biometrics to secure Notebooks, use of biometrics in schools and on college campuses, banks and health care facilities, on cell-phones and a variety of other examples of where biometrics are now being deployed.

The second most cited area was the increased consumer acceptance and understanding of the benefits of biometrics, especially with the enhanced concern about ID theft by the general public.

Most of our industry experts also referenced major large scale national ID deployments as an important milestone from this past year, in particular, India and their massive national ID program, the Unique Identification Authority."
