Which Biometric Modalities Does NIST Investigate?

I’ve spent a lot of time in the Bredemarket blog looking at a variety of NIST studies of different biometric modalities.

But you can read up on them yourself.

NIST has investigated the following biometric modalities, using both definitions of the word biometrics:

• Fingerprint identification.

• Face identification (FRTE) and analysis (FATE).

• Iris identification.

• Voice identification and analysis.

But NIST has not spent taxpayer money researching other biometric modalities, such as tongue identification.
