Course Overview

In this digital age, biometrics has become an important part of everyday life. Most adults encounter biometrics authentication in several different ways: as users of personal devices, as customers of a business, as employees at a workplace, and as citizens of government services. Technologies like face recognition, fingerprint scans, and iris recognition are increasingly being deployed because they offer greater convenience, speed, and accuracy. But how do they work? Do they really measure up? What if they fail? This two-day course examines these issues, and more, with the aim of providing a good foundational understanding of biometrics.
