Abstract
An eye blink password based secure authentication system utilizes the unique biometric patterns found in the human eye, particularly the iris or retina, to verify an individual’s identity. This technology capitalizes on the distinct and stable nature of eye biometrics, making it highly secure and reliable. The system involves capturing high-resolution images of the iris or retina, extracting unique features, and matching them against a stored database for authentication. Due to its accuracy, it is ideal for high-security applications where traditional methods like passwords may fall short. Integrated with encryption and liveness detection, eye-based authentication prevents unauthorized access and is resilient against spoofing attempts, offering a robust, non- invasive solution for secure identity verification. When users authenticate passwords through PINs, they must be obligatory to physically input the PIN, making them susceptible to password cracking techniques like shoulder surfing or thermal tracking. In contrast, utilizing hands-off gaze-based PIN entry methods eliminates any physical traces, providing a significantly more secure option for password entry. Gaze-based authentication involves determining the eye location across consecutive image frames and continuously tracking the precise eye center.
