Consumer confidence The main shift in the acceptance of biometrics is due to the accelerated movement within the smartphone industry . From 2013 when Apple launched fingerprint recognition to unlock iPhones , consumers have come to accept the use of biometrics for personal use , not just for national security and police work . There are now over 650 million smartphones which use biometrics , with around 200 models of smartphone that are available . With this move towards consumer-based biometrics , customers are accepting new uses of fingerprint ID like Apple Pay .
Confidence in companies Companies can invest in both their business and their staff by utilising biometrics within access control systems . Even non-smart ID cards such as driving licenses and passports are becoming obsolete , as we turn digital . ‘ Dumb cards ’ no longer provide truly secure access .

Biometric readers are becoming more agile , ensuring that users don ’ t have to shift their fingerprint around , or dance in front of an iris reader to achieve a positive identification . Biometrics are now a viable and affordable option for a variety of companies .
Biometric access control and tablet kiosks Tablet kiosks are able to integrate a variety of different devices within the enclosure , including biometric fingerprint readers .
