Telebiometrics is the application of biometrics to telecommunications and of telecommunications to remote biometric sensing. In this regard, many different aspects of human physiology, chemistry or behaviour can be used for biometric authentication.
BS EN 80000-14 is a European Standard that discusses telebiometrics related to human physiology.
BS EN 80000-14 provides names, symbols, and definitions for quantities and units of telebiometrics related to human physiology.
BS EN 80000-14 encompasses quantities and units for physiological, biological or behavioural characteristics that might provide input or output to telebiometric identification or verification systems (recognition systems), including any known detection or safety thresholds.
BS EN 80000-14 also includes quantities and units concerned with effects on a human being caused by the use of a telebiometric device.
BS EN 80000-14 on telebiometrics is relevant to:
The basis for the determination of the quantities and units to be addressed is the taxonomy
specified in the Telebiometric Multimodal Model (TMM) In the TMM, ten aspects of the interaction between the human body and its environment are recognised (base modalities). These interactions are assumed to occur at various scales of propinquity and at various intensities across the "personal privacy sphere"
In BS EN 80000-14, where a quantity relates to a safety threshold which if exceeded might cause discomfort, pain, or damage to the human body, it is, where possible, characterized by a safety threshold value.
BS EN 80000-14 provides base quantities of the International System of Quantities (ISQ) and its units which are the seven base units of the International System of Units (SI) and additionally those derived quantities and units which are relevant for more than one telebiometric modality.
Thus, compliance with BS EN 80000-14 can contribute to safe operation of a telebiometric device and telebiometric security.
