Biometrics is the study of people's physical and behavioural traits through measurement and statistical analysis. The technology is mostly used for identification and access control, as well as to identify those who are being watched. Biometric recognition (also known as biometrics) is the automatic recognition of individuals based on their biological and behavioural attributes. Fingerprint, face, iris, palmprint, retina, hand geometry, voice, signature, and gait are examples of biometric characteristics. The gathering of biometrics, according to the Canadian government, will speed up application processing and make it easier for low-risk travellers to enter the country.
