EINSTEIN project will deliver six applications essential to fight identity frauds: 1) online ID issuance using a secure cloud-based server for real-time biometric quality checks and fraud detection, 2) mobile document and identity checks using commercially available smartphones, 3) document authentication module to detect fraudulent documents, 4) pre-registration for land-border crossings including biometrics and Digital Travel Credentials, 5) EES kiosk with advanced fraud detection using video surveillance, 6) fast track for enrolled travellers using on-the-move face and iris.

To ensure a technology readiness level of minimum 7, the practitioners involved in the project will run six different pilot use cases in their own environment.

This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101121280.
