This PFI: AIR Research Alliance project focuses on the translation and transfer of sensor and software middleware technologies to fill the security and performance limitations present in current biometric recognition systems. The technologies have the following market-valued features: accurate detection of spoofing attempts in fingerprint, iris and face recognition, and sensor interoperability enhancements for biometric systems. They will provide significant performance and security benefits when compared to the leading commercial systems currently available in the biometrics market. The project accomplishes this transfer of research products to the market through the development of robust software, systems and processes. The outcomes include creation of new high tech jobs in West Virginia?s I-79 technology corridor and in St. Lawrence County, New York, commercial products for the growing biometric authentication market, with the potential to license the products and create a spinoff. The partnership engaged to transfer the technologies to the market domain include commercial companies affiliated with the Center for Identification Technology Research (CITeR) at West Virginia University and Clarkson University, including the research and commercialization partner NexID Biometrics, LLC and technology investors, Morpho and Seaway Private Equity Corp. The potential economic impact is expected to be the range of five to ten million dollars in the next five years, which will contribute to the U.S. competitiveness in the biometric security market space. The societal impact will address the national security needs for accurate human identification as well as quickly expanding commercial authentication markets. The project will develop new pathways for the creation of entrepreneurial workforce through student-led project teams. The activities will benefit from our strong commitment to bringing research and educational opportunities to students from the underrepresented groups. The project will serve as a catalyst and a unique model for much needed technology-based economic growth in West Virginia and upstate New York.

PFI：AIR 研究联盟项目重点关注传感器和软件中间件技术的转化和转移，以填补当前生物识别系统中存在的安全和性能限制。 这些技术具有以下市场价值的功能：准确检测指纹、虹膜和面部识别中的欺骗尝试，以及生物识别系统的传感器互操作性增强。 与目前生物识别市场上领先的商业系统相比，它们将提供显着的性能和安全优势。 该项目通过开发强大的软件、系统和流程，完成了研究产品向市场的转移。 其成果包括在西弗吉尼亚州的 I-79 技术走廊和纽约州圣劳伦斯县创造新的高科技就业机会，为不断增长的生物识别认证市场提供商业产品，并有可能获得产品许可并产生衍生产品。 致力于将技术转移到市场领域的合作伙伴包括隶属于西弗吉尼亚大学和克拉克森大学识别技术研究中心 (CITeR) 的商业公司，其中包括研究和商业化合作伙伴 NexID Biometrics, LLC 以及技术投资者 Morpho 和 Seaway私募股权公司预计未来五年的潜在经济影响将达到五到一千万美元，这将有助于提高美国在生物识别安全市场领域的竞争力。 社会影响将满足国家安全对准确的人体识别以及快速扩大的商业认证市场的需求。 该项目将通过学生领导的项目团队为创建创业劳动力开辟新途径。 这些活动将受益于我们为弱势群体的学生提供研究和教育机会的坚定承诺。 该项目将成为西弗吉尼亚州和纽约州北部急需的基于技术的经济增长的催化剂和独特模式。
