Biometrics – from identifying over a billion residents to catching criminals, from use in the battlefield and at borders to mobile phones – is the topic of a conference in London this month.
Biometrics 2010 is the 13th World Conference and Exhibition on the Practical Application of Biometrics. It is organised by Elsevier and the industry publication Biometric Technology Today. The conference runs at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, Westminster, from Tuesday 19 October to Thursday 21 October 2010. The exhibition will run on Wednesday 20 October and Thursday 21 October 2010.
More than 50 international speakers will convene to discuss how biometric technology such as fingerprint, facial and iris recognition is being used for large-scale government projects such as the world largest deployment of biometrics by the Unique ID Authority of India to law enforcement and border control. Away from governmental applications, biometrics are set to become more mainstream in customer facing applications such as mobile phones and in the finance industry say the event organisers. The three-day conference features numerous case studies from around the world, takes a close look at the results from the latest trials and tests and explores topical concerns. It is supported by a large exhibition featuring over 50 exhibitors.
