Objective
OnMoveID will leverage increasing sensory, computational and communicational technological capabilities of standard non-trusted smartphones for advanced privacy-preserving, legal and ethical compliant management of travel documents for fast on-the-move identification of travellers for all types of border crossings: land, sea, and air. High efficiency and security are achieved in three phases: (1) Registration of border crossing (duration ca. 10 min only once, then e.g. annually), within trusted extended 3rd generation EUID wallet. Also, self-scanned identity documents will be stored, verified and used to assess biometric standstill face images and fingerprints using smartphone cameras. (2) Back-up registration (duration ca. 5 min) at registration desk at border with advanced document scanning and digital identity generation using AI. (3.1) Walk-through along lanes (duration ca. 20 sec) of travellers is used to identify and track in consent smartphone positions using ultrasound, to conduct body count from heart beat detection and localization, to generate external best face images from multiple fixed (multi)spectral cameras, while using smartphone sensors to take walk-through face and fingerprint images. (3.2) Drive-through passenger vehicles (ca. 10 sec) uses multispectral cameras. (3.3) Bus inspection (duration ca. 2 min) uses in addition smartphone camera of border officers for taking in-consent images of passengers within the bus. OnMoveID will use rule- and risk-based decision making to accept (back-up) registration as well as final border crossing acceptance or rejection. It extends S-o-t-A of all existing legacy and emerging border management systems and data bases (e.g. EES, VIS, ETIAS) at EU level while improving travellers’ throughput, based on communication and cloud computing within extended EUID/digital wallet framework. OnMoveID is functionally and performance tested and iteratively improved at borders in (i) Finland, (ii) Slovakia, and (iii) UK.
