This completed project (phase I & II) will utilize Lumidigm's multispectral imaging platform to create a biometric device that can be efficiently slid under a sailor's battle dress to authenticate identification. Phase I will include designing an ergonomically viable device where multispectral images can be collected under a sailor's battle dress. Data will be collected utilizing Lumidigm's exisiting fingerprinting platform in order to demonstrate technical feasibility. A phase II algorithmic approach will be laid out in the final report.
Benefits: This project will provide the basis for developing a system that will non-invasively identify a sailor in battle dress. This will enable identity operations to work effectively even in non-optimum conditions.
