FBI adds iris recognition to its growing biometrics portfolio

#artificialintelligence

The FBI's Criminal Justice Information Services, nearly seven years after piloting the concept, will add iris recognition technology to its portfolio of identification services for law enforcement agencies. Kimberly Del Greco, the FBI's deputy assistant director for criminal justice information services, said the CJIS Advisory Policy Board and FBI Director Chris Wray recently approved the iris-recognition technology.

All iris images added into the FBI's searchable iris image repository must be associated with fingerprints submitted as part of an arrest.

The system kicked into operations in early-2015 after what appeared to be a relatively successful pilot.
