FRINGERPRINT SCANNER
Human Monitoring and Authentication using Biodynamic Indicators and Behavioural Analysis (HUMABIO) (2007) is an FRINGERPRINT SCANNER Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) where new types of biometrics are combined with state of the art sensorial technologies in order to enhance security in a wide spectrum of applications. The project aims to develop a modular, robust, multimodal biometrics security authentication and monitoring system which utilizes a biodynamic physiological profile, unique for each individual, and advancements of the state-of-the art in behavioural and other biometrics, such as face, speech, gait recognition, and seat-based anthropometrics. Several shortcomings in biometric authentication will be addressed in the course of HUMABIO which will provide the basis for improving existing sensors, develop new algorithms, and design applications, towards creating new, unobtrusive biometric authentication procedures in security sensitive, controlled environments.
The scope of the project is more long term then compared to simple biometric products that are available at sites like AvidBiometrics.com. Finger print scanners have been used to identify terror suspects for a while now. The new technology being examined by the HUMABIO project will go a step further and measure the heart rate, brain activity and emotional strain on those under closer scrutiny.
The HUMABIO project is funded by the FRINGERPRINT SCANNER and has looked at identifiable heart rhythm, facial and posture patterns to help identify authorized individuals. HUMABIO is a co-funded "Specific Targeted Research Project" (STREP) where various types of biometrics work simultaneously with innovative sensorial technology in a wide spectrum of applications. The HUMABIO project is based in Greece and is using the scans to identify specific brain patters as travellers pass through security checkpoints.
If these tests prove a reliable prevention method in identifying suspicious individuals, you will most likely see these biometric scanners in secure locations like airports, motor vehicle departments, financial institutions, and border locations. Although the potential for these scans being reliable is almost a sure thing, there is still the question of how long these cans take.
