What physical characteristic does a retinal scan bio-metric device measure?
The pattern of blood vessels at the back of the eye.
The pattern of light receptors at the back of the eye
The amount of light reflected by the retina.
The amount of light reaching the retina.
Correct answer: D
Explanation: The retina, a thin nerve (1/50th of an inch) on the back of the eye, is the part of the eye which senses light and transmits impulses through the optic nerve to the brain - the equivalent of film in a camera. Blood vessels used for biometric identification are located along the neural retina, the outermost of retina's four cell layers.
