A team of students (Michal Vaňo, Jan Svoboda) who completed our Biometric Systems course developed a web application for fingerprint processing that combines minutiae detection and type classification to demonstrate key concepts in biometric technology. Read more…
In 2019, our research team developed a novel device for the fast and touchless capture of fingerprints. This device was an important part of Michal Dvořák's Ph.D. thesis, which focused primarily on the study of biometric characteristics associated with the human hand. Read more…
Nasazování kamerových systémů vyvolává oprávněně rozporuplné reakce. Na jednu stranu poskytují velmi užitečný nástroj pro zvyšování bezpečnosti, na druhou stranu se objevují obavy z jejich zneužitelnosti. Kamerové systémy se začaly masově instalovat po roce 2001, avšak několik let trvalo, než se Read more…
For one of our research projects, focused on recognizing people by the veins on their fingers, we created models of the veins. We use these synthetic models as a reference to develop algorithms to reconstruct 3D vein models and also to test the robustness of the sensors against presence attacks. We use 3D resin printing as the basis for their creation, and then modify the printed models according to the specific application. Read more…
We have launched a new website of the STRADE research group at the Faculty of Information Technology, which contains updated information and clearly presents not only our current activities, but also interesting facts from the field of biometrics and computer vision. Read more…
