Conceptual Analysis on Sushruta’s view and its utility in Biometrics

Abstract

In Ayurveda classics Acharya Sushruta has said that size of the Dristhi and Romakupa doesn’t change with age. He also mentioned that there are few structural changes in the body which are natural like falling of teeth, absence of hairs on palm and sole. The same concepts of Dristhi and absence of hairs on palm are used in the implementation of iris, retina and finger print technology in various sectors and these physical traits helps for security, accuracy and reliability in identification systems such as KYC.
