Technology Innovation of the Year Award
The Frost &
Sullivan “2009 Global Iris Biometric Systems Technology Innovation of
the Year Award,” is presented to Smart Sensors Ltd (Smart Sensors). The
award recognizes the company’s outstanding efforts in developing the
Monro Iris Recognition Library and INterface Software Development Kit
(MIRLIN SDK) - a complete toolkit to build iris biometric engines for
image acquisition, enrollment,
verification, and iris identity (ID) applications. This technology is
based on the work of Donald Monro – now emeritus Professor of
Information Systems at the University of Bath, England. Besides
innovating and developing the MIRLIN SDK in 2007, Smart Sensors Ltd also
organized collection of the Bath Iris Image Database that consists of
more than 32,000 iris images. This iris image database features high
