Biometrics Systems Overview
The biometrics market is demanding
intelligent security features in faster,
smaller, lower-cost and convenient-to-use
products. To provide the market with better
security, more accuracy and speed,
OEMs and security product manufacturers
need to develop applications with the
capability to handle intricate algorithms
for processing image and video compression,
image enhancement, normalization,
feature extraction, matching and a host
of others. A high-performing processor is
an absolute must to meet these
demands, but that is not the only consideration.
The growing security market
needs the right mix of performance, low
power consumption and system flexibility
to develop the customized features for
each product niche. TI offers a variety of
DSPs that match these needs as well as
software for many of the functions. TI’s
DSP performance and programmability
allows you to move fast and secure your
product’s position in the market at the
right price point.
