Summary

Canada places significant emphasis on border security, and biometric systems play a crucial role in this regard. Biometrics, such as fingerprinting and facial recognition, is used for identity verification and entry/exit tracking at border checkpoints. Biometric data collection is part of the immigration and visa application process. Applicants may be required to provide biometric information, including fingerprints and photographs, to support their applications. Canadian airports have implemented biometric systems, including facial recognition technology, to enhance security and streamline passenger processing. Facial recognition is used for check-in, security screening, and boarding. Canada places a strong emphasis on privacy rights. The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada oversees the protection of personal information, including biometric data. Biometric systems must comply with strict privacy laws and regulations, such as the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information. In healthcare, biometric systems are being integrated to ensure patient safety and reduce errors. Biometric patient identification helps prevent medical errors, protect patient records, and improve the overall quality of healthcare services. Several Canadian cities are implementing smart city initiatives that leverage biometric technologies. For instance, biometric systems can be used for smart traffic management, public safety, and efficient city services. Canada collaborates with the United States and other countries on biometric data sharing, particularly for immigration and security purposes. These collaborations enhance border security and facilitate the efficient movement of people and goods.

According to the research report "Canada Biometric System Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the Canada Biometric System market is expected to reach market size of more than USD 3.80 Billion by 2028. Canada was one of the first countries to introduce biometric passports in 2013. These passports contain biometric data, such as facial images, to enhance security and prevent passport fraud. The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) uses biometric technology for immigration screening. Biometric data, including fingerprints and photographs, is collected from foreign nationals when they apply for visas, study permits, work permits, or permanent residency. Many Canadians use biometric authentication, such as fingerprint recognition, for secure mobile payments through digital wallet apps, making transactions more convenient and secure. Biometric access control systems are being integrated into smart home security systems, allowing residents to use their fingerprints or facial recognition for secure entry. Some hotels in Canada have implemented biometric check-in systems that allow guests to check in using facial recognition, making the check-in process faster and contactless. The Canadian biometric ecosystem includes a growing number of start-ups specializing in biometric technology, contributing to innovation and economic growth. Mobile apps in various sectors, from healthcare to transportation, increasingly integrate biometric authentication methods to provide secure and convenient access to services. Canadian game developers are exploring biometric technology for more immersive gaming experiences, including using biometrics to adapt in-game environments based on player emotions.

Based on product type the market is divided into Fingerprint Recognition, Face Recognition, Hand Geometry, Voice Recognition, Iris recognition/ Retina Recognition, Signature recognition, Vein Recognition and Others (Keystroke Dynamics, Gait Recognition, and Earlobe Geometry & DNA. Voice recognition offers a natural and convenient way for users to interact with systems. Users can simply speak their commands or provide voice samples for authentication, making it a user-friendly option. Voice recognition can be easily integrated with other biometric modalities, such as facial recognition or fingerprint recognition, to create multi-modal biometric systems. These systems provide enhanced security by combining the strengths of different biometric factors. Voice recognition is an inclusive technology as it can be used by individuals with various physical disabilities, including those who may have difficulty using other biometric systems, such as fingerprint scanners or iris scanners. Voice recognition technology is widely used in voice assistants like Siri, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa. This familiarity has increased user comfort and acceptance of voice-based biometric systems. Furthermore based on mobility the market is divided into Fixed and Portable. Portable biometric systems offer the flexibility and mobility needed for various applications. They are not restricted to fixed locations, making them ideal for scenarios where mobility is essential, such as fieldwork, remote locations, and events. Organizations with remote or mobile workforces use portable biometric devices for time and attendance management. Employees can use these devices to clock in and out from various locations. Portable biometric devices are built to withstand various environmental conditions, making them suitable for outdoor and rugged environments. They are often dustproof and waterproof.

Furthermore the market is divided into contact-based, contact-less and hybrid based on functionality. Hybrid biometric systems combine two or more biometric modalities or authentication factors, such as fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, and voice recognition, with other methods like PINs or smart cards. This combination enhances security by requiring multiple forms of authentication for access, making it more challenging for unauthorized individuals to gain entry. Hybrid biometric systems are suitable for securing critical infrastructure such as energy facilities, transportation hubs, and government installations. They provide a robust defence against unauthorized access. In addition based on component the market is divided into hardware, software and service. Many organizations prefer multi-modal biometric systems that combine multiple biometric modalities (e.g., fingerprint, facial, iris) for enhanced security. Biometric software is essential for integrating and managing these modalities within a single system. Hybrid authentication, which combines biometrics with other factors like passwords or smart cards, relies on sophisticated software to orchestrate multi-factor authentication processes securely. Cloud-based biometric systems are gaining popularity due to scalability and flexibility. Biometric software enables the deployment of cloud-based biometric services for various applications, including identity verification and access control.

In terms of authentication type the market is divided into Single-Factor Authentication and Multi-Factor Authentication. Single-factor authentication methods in biometrics, such as fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, or iris scanning, offer a high level of user convenience. Users can quickly and easily access systems or devices with a single biometric factor, eliminating the need to remember complex passwords or carry physical tokens. Single-factor biometric authentication is prevalent in consumer applications and services. Many Canadians use biometric authentication, such as fingerprint recognition on smartphones, for unlocking devices, making online payments, and accessing social media accounts. Based on end user the market is divided into Government, Banking and Finance, Defence Services, Consumer Electronics, Healthcare, Commercial Safety and Security, Transport/Visa/Logistics, Automotive and Others. Major Smartphone manufacturers incorporate biometric sensors directly into their devices. For example, fingerprint scanners embedded under the display or on the back of smartphones are standard features. This integration drives widespread adoption of biometrics among consumers. Biometric authentication methods are integral to secure mobile payment systems like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. Canadians use these services for contactless payments, and the use of biometrics adds an extra layer of security to transactions.
