How To Use Face-Based Surveillance To Significantly Improve Your Organization’s Performance By Enhancing Customer Service And Increasing Security

Face-based surveillance is the fastest growing area of face biometrics today. With the unique capability for non-cooperative and distant image capture, face recognition has attracted the attention of several markets in both security and non-security applications alike. The evolution of face recognition algorithms as well as camera technologies in recent years has led to significant improvements in performance. This combined with a critical understanding of the environment and strategic engineering of capture zones has turned face recognition surveillance into a realistic option.

The gaming industry offers unique opportunities for the use of facial recognition. The detection of “white list” individuals or VIP’s can be used to enhance customer service at casinos and associated hotels. The recognition of “black list” individuals can be used to enforce responsible gaming programs or for security purposes. In addition to image capture at entrances and hotel check-ins, strategic placement of cameras on gaming machines or table games provides the capability to track player movement and to offer cardless player loyalty programs.

This session will highlight the evolution of technology, field experience, and the benefits of using face-based surveillance in your organization, including:

• Why face recognition surveillance technology has reached a state of readiness, as new technologies have broadened usability
• Understanding that engineering the environment is as critical as the core technology
• Knowing how these applications can provide opportunities for enhanced customer service, enforcement of responsible gaming, and loyalty programs

Identity, The Big Picture: How To Ensure That An Identity Exists, Is Authentic, And Is Correctly Linked To The Individual Using It

There are several components to an identity and each has value or risk depending on how they are used and by whom. For instance, a valid and authentic passport can be used for legitimate purposes by the actual owner of the passport or by someone posing as the owner for fraudulent purposes.

CLEAR has created this process and integrated the technologies needed to positively identify individuals and repetitively verify their identity in an airport environment. While using the airport environment to prove the identity verification capabilities in highly secure environments, the CLEAR platform will be expanded into other industries and markets where knowing with confidence that an individual is in fact who they claim to be is of critical value.

Any environment that has to make a risk based decision on an individual such as access to a secure area, authorization to access information, authorization for executing transactions, etc. relies on the integrity of the identity for the decision being made. Not only must you ensure that the identity is authorized, but you must also be able to identify the person requesting the authorization as the owner of the identity.

This session will provide you with a deeper understanding of the components to an identity and how to correctly identify them, including:

• Ability to properly answer the following questions: Does this identity exist? Are the supporting documents for this identity authentic? Does the individual actually own the identity?
• How to integrate multimodal biometrics to confidently create an impermeable link between an individual and their identity
• A complete understanding of the identity validation and owner association process

4:15 p.m.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate and the United States Visitor and Immigrant Status Indicator Technology (US-VISIT) Program, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense, National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the United States Naval Academy, initiated the Iris-Face Technical Demonstration (IFTD) and Evaluation at the United States Border Patrol (USBP) McAllen Station facility in Texas in October 2010.
 
The goal of this project was to validate the viability, performance, and operational effectiveness of iris and facial capture technology of illegal aliens apprehended and detained by USBP in McAllen. The motivation for consideration of iris in DHS applications is based on the possibility to rapidly capture an accurate biometric and to execute a rapid identification. The operational trial was conducted by USBP agents, with data collection being done alongside the current fingerprint and face image collection. Approximately five hundred persons were imaged over a two week period.

This session will provide you with a first-hand look at how to implement multimodal biometric technologies into your organization as well as the benefits of interoperability and international engagement, including:

• Pursuing advanced multimodal biometrics—iris scans, facial recognition, and other technologies—to meet future requirements for increased reliability, efficiency, flexibility, and security
• Furthering  improved information sharing and expand technical assistance with foreign partners to support their biometric programs
• How interoperability with federal partners such as DOD and DOJ is enhancing immigration and border management to ensure decision makers have the right information at the right time to determine identity
• Planning for the critical importance of adopting compatible standards for collecting, storing, transmitting, and matching biometric data, which will ultimately result in improved security and facilitated travel worldwide

We'll recap the highlights of the past two days and ask you to share key insights and next steps with the group.
