Norwegian Biometric Laboratory Annual Workshop 2013

Awarded: NOK 45,999

The theme of the event this year shall be "Off-the-Shelf technologies for Biometrics - from instrument-centered to user-centered", which aims at finding opinions and solutions on how to promote biometrics to wider applications in both governmental and civ il markets, via those off-the-shelf technologies. Compared to dedicated technologies to biometrics, such off-the-shelf technologies offer the following advantages: (1) better acceptance, convenience, and interoperability of biometrics devices and function s; (2) flexible configuration and integration in a system; and (3) lower deployment cost through standardized or developed technologies. This event shall cover two main topics: (1) biometric web service and cloud based applications; and (2) innovative bio metric sensing for better acceptance and efficiency. We plan to invite 5 experts (from Norway, Europe and US, with 2 females and 3 males) in these two fields to give a 20-30 minutes talk by each. Besides, 1 presentation on introduction of Norwegian Biomet rics Laboratory, and 2 presentations reporting recent research achievement by NBL shall be given to promote NBL and biometrics researches in Norway. The event shall be a one-day event taken place on February 22th, 2013, at campus of Høgskolen i Gjøvik. T he estimated participant number is 50-100, according to the participants numbers of previous two years events.
