Louisville, Colo. — Acuity Market Intelligence of Louisville, Colo. released results from its market research report "The Future of Biometrics." This report indicates the biometrics market is poised for sustained growth through 2020 approaching revenues of $10 billion annually.

Maxine Most. "Market entrants from fields such as robotics and astronomy will elevate technological capability and provide the requisite knowledge for the industry to leverage the opportunity and experience sustained global growth."
 
The report assesses the impact of these trends and market entrants while addressing questions about how the biometrics marketplace will evolve through 2020. The report is intended to provide a basis for short- and long-term strategic planning for technology and solution development by vendors, integrators, investors, consultants, distributors, solution providers and end-users.
