This book is dedicated to all those who have struggled to find practical and socially acceptable ways of implementing biometric identity verification techniques upon a large scale. It is further dedicated to all the users who will be exposed to the many variations of biometric identity verification in the coming years and their inevitable curiosity as to what is actually happening behind the scenes and why.

“Julian Ashbourn has done a masterful job of presenting a holistic approach for incorporating biometrics technologies into new or existing systems in “Practical Biometrics.” A renowned authority within the global biometric community, Julian’s perspectives inspire us to realize what “should be done” versus what “could be done.” He brings foresight and ethics to the table of mathematicians, scientists, engineers, and application owners to challenge us to ensure positive societal impacts of the use of artificially intelligent technologies – in particular, biometrics. Using the “BANTAM” methodology, Julian informs how biometrics might be deployed in everyday situations. In accordance with the guidance given in “Practical Biometrics,” application developers and product designers/developers will optimize successful biometrics integration. I encourage readers to consider Julian’s guidance and look forward to his future insights and recommendations.” Cynth
