DUBLIN, Oct. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Iris Recognition Market by Component (Hardware, and Software), Product (Smartphones, Scanners), Application (Identity Management and Access Control, Time Monitoring, E-payment), Vertical, and Region - Global Forecast to 2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The iris recognition market was valued at USD 2.0 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 4.3 billion by 2024; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.2% from 2019 to 2024.

The rising adoption of iris recognition technology by government organizations for identification and authentication purposes and surging demand for iris scanners in access control applications are key driving factors of the iris recognition market growth. However, the fear of privacy intrusion and inconvenience, and the presence of various competing biometric technologies are a few of the factors hindering the growth of the iris recognition industry.

Security has become a major concern for every country because of multiple factors including rising terrorist attacks, cybercrimes, and other frauds. Authentication is one way through which security can be improved. For authentication purposes, biometric technologies are considered to be the most reliable.

Biometric technology is defined as a technology that identifies an individual through the verification of physical and behavioural characteristics, such as fingerprints, eye retinas, irises, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), voice patterns, facial patterns, and hand measurements for authentication purposes. Iris recognition is one of the ideal ways of biometric identification because the iris pattern remains stable over a person's life as long as there are no injuries or it is not affected by any disease. Therefore, a single enrollment scan can last a lifetime.

The increasing penetration of iris recognition technology in consumer electronics, especially smartphones is among the key driving factors for the iris recognition market. The high adoption of iris recognition technology by government organizations for identification and authentication purposes, high demand for iris scanners for the access control application, and a few other key factors are having a positive impact on the growth of the iris recognition market.

Thales Group (France), IDEMIA (France), Iris ID (US), IriTech (US), HID Global (US), Princeton Identity (US), EyeLock (US), Secure Identity (US), Unisys (US), Aware (US), NEC Corporation (Japan), BioEnable Technologies (India), CMITech (South Korea), 4G Identity Solutions (India), and Mantra Softech (India) are among the key players operating in the iris recognition market. The strategy of product launches is one of the major strategies adopted by key players to grow in the market from 2017 to 2019.
