The National Science and Technology Council (2006) notes the future of the biometrics community will be shaped by four primary driving forces:
- National Security
- Homeland Security and Law Enforcement
- Enterprise And E-government Services
- Personal Information and Business Transactions
The council further offers four preeminent challenges for the biometrics community:
- Improve collection devices - biometric sensors
- Develop efficient and effective large-scale operational capabilities
- Establish standards for plug-and-play performance
- Enable informed debate on why, how and when biometrics should be used
The council's analysis of each driving force reveals shared areas of concern, which in turn suggest the most crucial areas for enhanced emphasis and collaboration within the biometrics community.
