Part One: National ID – Europe
Biometric Technology Today · 2005
Right across the world there is a drive to increase document security with biometrics. This is the first of a two-part survey into the use of biometrics in national identity cards and will focus on the European market. There has been increasing momentum in the region towards implementing biometrics, particularly given that biometric identifiers are now being introduced in passports and other ID documents in line with international requirements. Next month, Btt will focus on more ID card issues and hone in on schemes in other regions of the world.
