Standardization of Contactless Fingerprint Capture
Contactless acquisition of fingerprints presents a fundamental departure from legacy capture technologies. The friction ridge surface that comprises a fingerprint is a three-dimensional topography superimposed upon a three-dimensional curved surface of a finger presenting many challenges in both acquisition as well as interoperability with legacy contact collected imagery. In this presentation we will discuss NIST’s work in the area of standardizing this nascent technology, and the challenges in doing so.

Biography:
John Libert has worked at NIST for over twenty-four years, variously engaged in developing measurements by which to assess video quality, performance of electronic flat panel displays, and biometric image quality. His current primary focus is development of metrics, protocols, and standard test artifacts for the evaluation of contactless fingerprint acquisition devices and their interoperability with legacy contact devices.
