Today’s
technologies
already allow us
to create systems
that will allow us
to automatically
recognise people
without the use
of any paper
documents just by
face and iris on a
country level.
Systems analyse airport passenger traffic
captured by cameras that comprise
travellers, people seeing somebody off
and airport employees, and process an
enormous number of biometric data over
a year (up to tens of millions of people).
If the system identifies a wanted person,
law enforcement officers receive
instant notification.
The task is not simply to ‘recognise
the face’ but to highlight it in the crowd
right here and right now in the real-life
lighting conditions, and then instantly
check the images against the wanted
lists in the relevant databases while
ensuring the highest possible accuracy
of such a comparison.

Another case that allows exceptions
in biometric data processing relates to
searching for long-term missing people.
Just one photo of a missing person
can help in searching where and when
has s/he been (and was captured
by a camera) the last time and who
accompanied that person.
challenges in achieving the task. First
of all, the number of people in transport.
There are hundreds of thousands of
people every day, which means that
implemented solutions should be capable
of working in these conditions.
Deploying video surveillance
with biometric identification in
the transport sector Secondly, the infrastructure should also
be huge requiring hundreds or even
thousands of cameras. That makes up a
challenge even for a competent solution
provider to design it in an optimal way.
The UAE has the advantage in terms of
deploying face recognition as there are
cameras installed almost everywhere
which can be used for this purpose.
But there are also different kinds of Thirdly, installing the solution for security
agencies, we should clearly understand
not only how to deploy the system but
also how to integrate it into their internal
processes, taking into account the
