Biometric recognition in Automated Border Control (ABC) systems is performed in response to an increased worldwide traffic, by automatically verifying the identity of the passenger during border crossing. Currently, ABC systems seldom use methods for multimodal biometric fusion, which have been proved to increase the recognition accuracy, due to technological and privacy limitations. This paper proposes a framework for the biometric fusion in ABC systems, with the features of being technology-neutral and privacy- compliant, by performing an analysis of the most suitable biometric fusion techniques for ABC systems and considering the current technical and legal limitations.
