The Australian Customs Service (ACS) has revealed a late-November start date for its biometric passport recognition pilot at Sydney Airport ahead of a likely nationwide rollout of the system.
The Australian Customs Service (ACS) is refusing to release results of its survey of Qantas personnel participating in a pilot of its SmartGate biometric facial recognition technology at Sydney Airport.
Despite a series of technical hiccups, the first public trials of Australia's AU$62 million biometric SmartGate project are set to take place in Brisbane in August, six months behind schedule.
Just months before the launch of Australia's e-passport, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) has tried to alleviate concerns the technology might not be up to the task.
The Minister for Justice and Customs, Senator Chris Ellison, has confirmed international interest in passport photo-matching technology launched officially in Sydney today.
