Performance Evaluation of the IrisScan2200 Against Four Respirator Masks
The use of biometrics for the identification of individuals is becoming more prevalent in society and in the general government community. As the demand for these devices increases, it becomes necessary for the user community to have the facts needed to determine which device is the most appropriate for any given application. One such application is the use of biometric devices in areas where an individual may not be able to present a biometric feature that requires contact with the identifier (e.g., when dressed in anti-contamination suits or when wearing a respirator). This paper discusses a performance evaluation conducted on the IrisScan2200 from Iridian Technologies to determine if it could be used in such a role.
