FOCUS AREA: security identity and travel documents, biometrics, machine learning, visual analytics, fraud detection
The SafeTravellers project aims at:
- strengthening the security at borders
- providing to the Law Enforcement Authorities the appropriate tools to combat identity fraud
- offering a frictionless border crossing experience for citizens as they will not have to stop at the border checkpoints
SafeTravellers is proposing a new way of citizen identification based on multiple biometrics instead of the identity document. In addition, it aims to enhance the current way of identity verification at the borders through a set of tools that will detect attacks at the biometric hardware, identity and travel document fraud and attempts to falsify biometrics.
