Biometric Authentication

The issue with some of the current biometric technology is that it can be easily circumvented. A fingerprint can be imitated using clay, wax or conductive ink. An iris scan or facial recognition can be fooled by a picture of someone's eye, or face.

This project investigates into using the heartbeat for biometric authentication. Everybody's heartbeat is unique, based on its size, shape, and position of the valves. Using the heartbeat, therefore, should provide a secure form of authentication, which is almost impossible to mimic.
