Biometric Updates

Forensic scientists improve touch DNA collection methods March, 2022
Skin cells and their DNA varies between individuals, but new data shows that some groups of people have higher variability in their cell deposits. The South Australian forensic science researchers are building a suite of new insights into crime scene investigation -- including the difference between high, intermediate and low skin 'shedders' that will help […]
Turning any camera into a polarization camera March, 2022
Researchers have developed a metasurface attachment that can turn just about any camera or imaging system, even off-the-shelf systems, into polarization cameras. The attachment uses a metasurface of subwavelength nanopillars to direct light based on its polarization and compiles an image that captures polarization at every pixel.
Real-world study shows the potential of gait authentication to enhance smartphone security December, 2021
A study showed that -- within an appropriate framework -- gait recognition could be a viable technique for protecting individuals and their data from potential crime.
Bulletproof fingerprint technology takes images in the round November, 2021
Experts have developed a unique method for retrieving high resolution images of fingermarks from curved objects like bullet casings that offers greater detail and accuracy than traditional forensic methods.
Securing data transfers with relativity November, 2021
To counter hacking, researchers have developed a new system based on the concept of 'zero-knowledge proofs', the security of which is based on the physical principle of relativity: information cannot travel faster than the speed of light. Thus, one of the fundamental principles of modern physics allows for secure data transfer.
Solid, liquid, or gas? Technique quickly identifies physical state of tissues and tumors October, 2021
Researchers report that the way a tissue's cells are arranged can serve as a fingerprint for the tissue's 'phase' -- whether it is more like a solid, liquid, or gas. For example, tumors that are more solid may be relatively stable, whereas more fluid-like growths could be more prone to mutate and metastasize.
Many US adults worry about facial image data in healthcare settings October, 2021
Uses of facial images and facial recognition technologies -- to unlock a phone or in airport security -- are becoming increasingly common in everyday life. But how do people feel about using such data in healthcare and biomedical research?
New DNA-based chip can be programmed to solve complex math problems September, 2021
A novel chip automates the reaction cascades occurring between molecules inside DNA to carry out complex mathematical calculations.
Face off for best ID checkers July, 2021
The Glasgow Face Matching Test has been updated to find super-recognizers who can help prevent errors caused by face recognition software.
AI system-on-chip runs on solar power June, 2021
Engineers have developed an integrated circuit that can carry out complicated artificial-intelligence operations like face, voice and gesture recognition and cardiac monitoring. Powered by either a tiny battery or a solar panel, it processes data at the edge and can be configured for use in just about any type of application.
