With growing concerns for national security and public safety, government agencies in Australia and around the world are taking strong measures to introduce biometric-enhanced official identification documents such as passports, visas, and ID cards. The proposed face detection and tracking system will play a key role in personal identification and human activity monitoring. The developed system will have a huge potential in surveillance, security, law enforcement, and ICT. This project will contribute to building a knowledge economy in Australia and help safeguard and protect Australia from terrorism and crime. Furthermore, its outcomes will enhance the reputation of Australia as a leader in frontier technologies and smart information use.Read moreRead less

MESH is a cross-disciplinary network that amalgamates a national array of sub-networks of research in digital arts, ICT and cross-cultural and policy negotiation. It boosts Australia's existing cross-disiciplinary strengths in Media-arts, E-culture, Science and Humanities by encouraging existing digital sub-networks to grow together via well-brokered communications and demonstrations online and on-location. Progressively, MESH participants will discover existing harmonies whilst also inventing new languages and protocols leading to breakthroughs in cross-disciplinary collaboration and innovation. MESH encourages a 'paradigm shift' in digital research, realising the extraordinary potential that is ready but latent across Australia's arts and sciences.Read moreRead less
