- January 15 - Ethical questions in the biometrics industry, Sarah Lannes, Research engineer, IDEMIA
Abstract: The rise of IA has brought many ethical questions to light in the public and legal spheres. However even before this, ethics and legal matters have always been an intrinsic part of the biometrics field of research due to its very nature. We will present both the legal and technical challenges that we encounter and the solutions we propose.
