Abstract

The article presents biometric systems from three different standpoints. Technological standpoint, where the focus is laid on biometric system usage by the general public. Explaining basic terms and difficulties using various biometric characteristics. It also shortly describes how recognition works in several of these biometric characteristics (fingerprint, face, iris and signature). After that is the legal standpoint, which is focused mainly on European union law, where the often-mentioned GDPR is discussed. This basic legal regulation places a significantly higher standard than the previous legislation on the processing of biometric data as a special category of personal data. Lastly, the article shows the sociological standpoint. In that part different attitudes towards biometric technologies are discussed within the world population as well as different groups of Czech Republic population. In the latest survey done by the authors in 2020 was found out the age and education are playing crucial role in the knowledge about the biometric systems.
