- This paper reviews accessibility (disabilities, young/old subjects, etc.) challenges for the large-scale roll-out of biometric systems, particularly with respect to mobile device systems. In doing so we set out the research agenda for projects such as the EU AMBER Marie-Cure ITN which has resulted in the definition of an international standard technical report (ISO/IEC TR29156) on the security and usability needs in applications using biometrics. This work has fed into implementation best practice for policing and border control systems being defined by the UK Government (and others) – ref: Parliamentary Office for Science and Technology (POST) Note on biometric usage.
