...measure a physical character by a human being and combine these data saved in a database or on a chip for identification or verification.

Biometrics cover all the technics, which can measure the unique pattern by a human being and combine it with data to make identification/verification.

The most common form of biometrics is finger identification/verification, thus it has also become the most used and known form. However, we still have face, iris etc, which can be used as biometric identification/verification. Scanaware has chosen to focus on finger biometrics.
