18. A modular biometric station system, comprising:
a core unit comprising:
a display; at least one camera;
at least one lighting component;
at least a top port and a bottom port; and
circuitry operable to detect power requirements of at least one component coupled to at least one of the top port or the bottom port and provide power according to the power requirements;
a number of modules;
a standalone end cap that is communicably and electrically coupleable to at least one of the top port or the bottom port; and
at least one module end cap that is:
communicably and electrically coupleable to at least one of the top port or the bottom port;
communicably and electrically coupleable to the number of modules; and operable to communicably and electrically connect a module of the number of modules and the core unit while connected to the module of the number of modules and the core unit;
wherein the module includes a biometric sensor.
