Funded Activity Summary

An Australian Face-Space for enhancing human identification in forensics and security. Safeguarding Australia from terrorism and crime requires accurate identification of suspects and offenders. Current methods rely heavily on photographs and video images. A new 3D imaging system for comparing faces has been developed but the information about Australian faces needs to be added to provide robust evidence to Australian courts.
