The 21st Century’s Four Revolutionary Biometric Events

I define a revolutionary biometric event as something that COMPLETELY TRANSFORMS the biometric industry.

For me, the four events that have revolutionized biometrics in this century (so far) include:

• The September 2001 use of commercial planes in a terrorist attack.
• The April 2013 Boston Marathon bombings.
• The September 2013 introduction of Touch ID on the Apple iPhone.

• The 2020 (and beyond) COVID-19 pandemic.

If you want to learn WHY I regard these four events as revolutionary, and why I DON’T regard the introduction of the Apple Vision Pro as revolutionary, see my June 2023 post.
