Abstract: To solve the issue of close human contact in biometric authentication system, relatively a new technique gait recognition is used. The human gait is a common feature for identifying the walking manner of the person during walking and it is viewed as significant indicator for gait function of individual for experimental and research setting. Gait symmetry is usually considered as function of locomotion between the changes of the body and its activities. An exclusive advantage of gait as a biometric is its latent for detection at a distance or at low resolution or when other biometrics might not be perceivable. In this paper we investigate the problem of people recognition by their gait. The coordination and cyclic nature of the body motion makes gait as unique characteristics of each individual, thus a good biometric identification approach. The purpose of this paper is to describe some of the problems that make it difficult to apply gait as a biometric identification and use recent literature to show suggestions being made to solve some of these technical issues.
