Join us for an insightful webinar on “Fundamentals of Hand Biometrics: Commercial and Forensic Applications” on November 4, 2026, at 8:00 AM US Eastern Time (2:00 PM CET, 8:00 PM Beijing Time), via Zoom.
Prof. Dr. Wai Kin Adams Kong from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, will introduce the fundamental principles of hand-based biometrics, focusing on palmprint recognition and its advantages for commercial identity verification, including user acceptance, privacy protection, and biometric distinctiveness.
The talk will also cover palm vein and finger vein recognition, addressing challenges related to data acquisition, presentation attacks, recognition accuracy, usability, and security. Beyond commercial applications, the webinar will explore the use of palmprints and wrist characteristics in forensic investigations, highlighting their potential for identity analysis when conventional biometric evidence is limited or unavailable.
The webinar will be relevant to researchers, practitioners, students, and professionals working in biometrics, identity verification, biometric security, and digital forensics.
