Iris recognition is the best kind of authentication process available today. Iris recognition is a method of identifying people based on unique patterns within the ring-shaped region surrounding the pupil of the eye. The iris usually has a brown, blue, gray, or greenish color, with complex patterns that are visible upon close inspection. Because it makes use of a biological characteristic, iris recognition is considered a form of biometric verification.
The iris
is the colored ring of muscle that opens and shuts the pupil of the eye like a camera
shutter. The colored pattern of our irises is determined genetically when we're
in the womb but not fully formed until we're aged about two. It comes from a
pigment called melanin—more melanin gives you browner eyes and less produces
bluer eyes. Although we talk about people having "blue eyes,"
"green eyes," "brown eyes," or whatever, in reality the
color and pattern of people's eyes is extremely complex and completely unique:
the patterns of one person's two eyes are quite different from each other and
even genetically identical twins have different iris patterns.
The iris is a visible but protected structure, and it
does not usually change over time, making it ideal for biometric
identification. Most of the time, people's eyes also remain unchanged after eye
surgery, and blind people can use iris scanners as long as their eyes have
irises. Eyeglasses and contact lenses typically do not interfere or cause
inaccurate readings

developed and patented the first in 1994. Works with Flom and Safir to develop
the algorithms that can turn photographs of irises into unique numeric codes
