About This Item
IEEE 2891-2023 is a standard for evaluating the performance of fingerprint recognition in biometric information systems. It provides a technical basis for measuring how fingerprint-based identity functions behave in practice, helping engineers, developers, and test teams compare results with more consistency. In a field that combines bioengineering, computing, and communication technologies, this standard can support clearer performance assessment, better system verification, and more reliable procurement decisions for fingerprint recognition solutions.
About IEEE 2891-2023
This technical document focuses on performance evaluation methods for fingerprint recognition, making it relevant to biometric systems where accuracy and repeatability matter. IEEE 2891-2023 is intended to help define how fingerprint recognition behavior is assessed under controlled conditions, which can be important for benchmarking and compliance work. By giving structure to evaluation practices, the standard supports more consistent comparisons across systems, devices, and implementation approaches used in biometric information processing.
Where is IEEE 2891-2023 used?
IEEE 2891-2023 is commonly used in environments that design, test, or deploy fingerprint recognition modules within biometric access control, identity verification, and related sensing platforms. It is also useful for teams working on embedded devices, secure computing systems, and networked authentication workflows where fingerprint performance needs to be measured consistently. The standard may guide evaluation in laboratories, product development programs, and acceptance testing for systems that rely on fingerprint-based biometric information.
Importance in practice
In practice, IEEE 2891-2023 helps reduce ambiguity when fingerprint recognition performance must be assessed, documented, or compared. That can improve consistency in testing, support more defensible engineering decisions, and lower the risk of selecting systems that do not meet expected performance needs. For organizations involved in design control, procurement, or verification, the standard provides a more reliable reference for evaluating whether a fingerprint recognition solution behaves as intended under defined conditions.
