1. Authenti-Corp.
Authenti-Corp believes that: 1)
more multi-modal systems must be commercially available and that 2) mature
operational situations must be developed before an evaluation framework can
be developed and considered by a standardization committee. The
development of algorithms to fuse results from separate biometric devices,
results which are sometimes indeterminate, is currently an area of active
research. However, we are currently unaware of any commercialized fusion
algorithm solutions. While multi-modal is an apparent need for
border crossing and transportation worker operational needs, implementation
paradigms must be developed before these operational needs can be met.
Authenti-Corp would vote yes when commercial-off-the-shelf multi-modal
solutions become available and when operational situations are more mature.
2. US Department of Homeland Security - TSA
This is very important and timely work. We should proceed with urgency.
