Further Biometric developmentsSkin TextureVein patternsEar shape being a separate biometricBody odorLips Fingernails ect.

All will be developed in a near future to be very helpful in law agencies , being the difference of DNA where as twins can have the same DNA but not the same biometric.4

Pros of BiometricsNot much storage neededLow data storageMore readily accepted by usersAdditional hardware is cheap and availableHigh accuracy in identifying usersNon-intrusive

This pros are for the fingerprint, hand scans, voice authentication , and iris scans .5

Cons of Biometrics

Fingerprint can be use by criminals by adopting it for authenticationNot unique to every userNeed of background noise controlled and large storage spaceExtremely expensive and intrusive

FingerprintsHand scansVoice authenticationRetina Scan

Biometric Trends in agenciesHomeland SecurityUse for frauds/prevent fraudsFBIUse of palm print to identity increase accuracyLaw EnforcementFacial recognition and voice prints

All biometrics will be used in all law enforcement agencies . Such as voice recognition a valid investigatory technique used on the recognition of Al Qaeda bombing plan conversations.7
