Automated Fingerprint Identification System Market Trends

• 
  

  Growing government initiatives are driving the market growth

  
  

Market CAGR for automated fingerprint identification systems is driven by several government initiatives to offer unique identity cards. Governments of several economies are linking one identification evidence with another of the same individual to expand transparency within the country's administrative system. This could only be possible by adopting digital solutions and technology in security systems. Digital solutions and technology in security systems have helped governments and their agencies predict and identify criminals before any damage is done. National, regional, and local level authorities, including the police, banks, intelligence offices, and governments, are installing automated fingerprint identification systems to maintain transparency within their systems owing to their multiple advantages related to healthcare, security, and financial transactions driving the growth of the global automated fingerprint identification systems market revenue.

Additionally, the surging offline and online payment security issues worldwide are one of the major factors driving the growth of the Automated Fingerprint Identification System Market. Some of the important areas of an automatic fingerprint identification system include electronic voter registration & electronic management, digitized driver licensing, biometric visas, e-passport, ID registries, fraud prevention, and general identification. Banking institutions are rapidly penetrating online banking and payment transactions significantly in recent years, propelling the need for advanced identification systems to safeguard their customers. The rapidly growing telecom sector will likely create many lucrative growth opportunities over the forecast period because the telecommunication industry is one of the largest users of automated fingerprint identification systems globally. Several initiatives undertaken by the government to encourage e-governance usage are further likely to augment the adoption of identification systems globally.

In addition, growing digitalization and the emergence of fast-speed networks in underdeveloped and developing economies are widening the scope of the automated fingerprint identification system. However, such growing adoption of these systems induces manufacturers to boost their funding and increase the research and development activities to launch distinctive products.

The increasing crime rate is expected to drive the demand for automated fingerprint identification system technology in law enforcement applications to identify criminals. The technology searches a set of known or latent fingerprints from the crime scene and compares them with a database of existing fingerprints. An automated fingerprint identification system is more effective for searching, classifying, and matching fingerprints than traditional identification methods. This is expected to propel the market's growth over the forecast period.

Automated Fingerprint Identification System Industry Developments

April 2023: The national database authority of Pakistan has introduced the impressively accurate automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS), which was locally designed. Software developers from the National Database & Registration Authority created the system, which they have named "Nadir" (the Urdu word for "unique"). The automated system is expected to revolutionize how biometric identification is used in a variety of civil applications, including immigration, border control, e-governance, and social services. NADIR has attained an impressive accuracy rate above 99.5% based on the internationally renowned Fingerprint Verification Competition (FVC), a benchmarking exercise conducted in Italy. As a public service, NADRA can now reliably and swiftly store fingerprints & identify people for a variety of uses.

According to the statement, NADRA's status as a pioneer in cutting-edge identity management solutions has been cemented with the introduction of the system. As a result of this breakthrough, Pakistan has now joined some countries who have developed their original AFIS technology and is prepared to sell its product on the global market to assist other nations in improving their identification procedures. The worldwide market for biometric identification technology, according to authority authorities, is mostly dominated by suppliers from industrialized nations including the US, Russia, Japan, the UK, France, Germany, & others.

Ijazat Aap Ki, a latest data protection service that guarantees the security and privacy of citizen data, was introduced by NADRA in March. The first data protection service in Pakistan sends a 6-digit passcode to individuals' phones whenever a request is made for a transaction or personal information, giving users more control over their data and limiting unlawful access to the service providers, including banks.

March 2022: Suprema launched a new generation of credentials control products that concentrates heavily on contactless solutions. The star of Suprema's production was BioStation 3, an all-in-one access control solution that delivers numerous credential options, from facial recognition and mobile access to barcodes, QR codes, and RFID cards. BioStation 3 will be emitted in the second half of the year.

November 2021: Suprema announced the successful integration of its biometric access control products with Genetec Security Center, a unified security platform that connects security systems, sensors, and data in a single intuitive interface.
