External biometrics such as thumbprint and facial recognition have become standard tools for securing our digital devices and protecting our data. These systems, however, are potentially prone to copying and cybercrime access. Researchers have therefore explored internal biometrics, such as the electrical patterns within an electrocardiogram (ECG). The heart's electrical signals carry sufficient distinctiveness to allow the ECG to be used as an internal biometric for user authentication and identification. Using the ECG in this way has many potential advantages and limitations. This article reviews the history of ECG biometrics and explores some of the technical and security considerations. It also explores current and future uses of the ECG as an internal biometric.
诸如指纹识别和面部识别等外部生物识别技术已成为保护我们数字设备安全和数据的标准工具。然而，这些系统可能容易被复制和遭受网络犯罪攻击。因此，研究人员探索了内部生物识别技术，例如心电图（ECG）中的电信号模式。心脏的电信号具有足够的独特性，使心电图能够用作内部生物识别技术来进行用户认证和识别。以这种方式使用心电图有许多潜在的优点和局限性。本文回顾了心电图生物识别技术的历史，并探讨了一些技术和安全方面的考虑因素。它还探讨了心电图作为内部生物识别技术的当前和未来用途。
