IDEMIA is boasting about the strong performance of its MorphoWave fingerprint technology in recent NIST testing. The results of the Contactless-to-Contact Fingerprint Capture study were revealed back in May, but the NIST did not name the six contactless fingerprint solutions that were examined during the test. Now IDEMIA is claiming that its MorphoWave scanner bested […]
FindBiometrics is at the forefront of the identity privacy discussion, working with our association partners in vertical markets to advise on privacy best practices and help educate people around the world about their digital identity rights. That’s why we are pleased to present this very special episode of ID Talk, created in association with the […]
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has shared the results of a study that compares contactless fingerprint recognition solutions to traditional contact-based alternatives. The organization noted that COVID-19 has generated more interest in contactless technology, but stressed that the study itself was carried out before the outbreak of the disease. In the study, […]
The Slandala Company has officially become an accredited Kantara Initiative assessor. The Kantara Initiative offers independent technology assessments to companies that need to comply with the strict identity guidelines established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The new certification allows Slandala Company to carry out those assessments, and attests to the expertise […]

The company’s FaceMe algorithm attained a ranking of 18th in the world, and noted that […]
“The results of IREX 10 confirm IDEMIA’s leadership in biometric research since the early 1980s, and the expertise of IDEMIA’s teams in this field,” – Jean-Christophe Fondeur, CTO, IDEMIA IDEMIA is once again celebrating a bit of third party validation from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, this time with the announcement that it […]
Rank One is boasting about its strong performance in the latest round of NIST testing. The company’s ROC SDK v1.20 was one of the most accurate algorithms tested in the most recent Face Recognition Vendor Test (FRVT) 1:N identification report, which evaluates a solution’s ability to match an image of an unknown person’s face to […]
Paravision is celebrating its strong performance in the NIST’s latest Face Recognition Vendor Test (FRVT) 1:N Identification report. The 1:N test evaluates facial recognition algorithms based on their ability to match an unknown face to a known identity. This time around, Paravision’s solution was measured against more than 200 facial recognition algorithms from 60 different […]
The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is calling attention to potential ethical violations related to the NIST’s Tattoo Recognition Challenge. The NIST issued the Tatt-C challenge in 2014 in an effort to spur the development of automatic tattoo recognition tools, giving interested parties access to an “open tattoo database” that contained more than 15,000 images. […]
The ongoing coronavirus epidemic continues to disrupt the biometrics industry’s events calendar, with the Biometrics Institute announcing that it has postponed its US Conference. The event was originally slated to take place this month, but has now been pushed back to September 21st in the interest of mitigating the spread of COVID-19. In the meantime, […]
