- Description
- NIST is conducting research on interoperable biometrics via web services. On September 21st-23rd, NIST will be demonstrating web services-based wireless biometric acquisition at the 2010 Biometric Consortium Conference in Tampa, FL. Additionally, NIST is leading a discussion to determine the feasibility of establishing a new OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) Technical Committee (TC). The purpose of the TC under consideration is to define, enhance, and maintain open standards that facilitate the use of biometrics and biometric operations over a services oriented architecture, such as web services. At its inception, the TC will target web services for biometric devices --- a specification describing a suite of sensor- and modality-agnostic acquisition operations (e.g., sensor initialization, sensor configuration, data capture, data transfer.) To participate in this discussion, send a message to bws-discuss-subscribe@lists.oasis-open.org. Subscription to the discussion list is required in order to post messages, but the list archive is completely open to the public. NIST encourages public participation in this discussion and these activities. More information can be found at http://www.nist.gov/itl/iad/ig/bws.cfm.
