Research abstract
In order to meet the US Army’s need for a biometric identification and access management system for medical personnel and patients for Android-based platforms for operation in situations with intermittent network access, ChromoLogic proposes to develop a Biometric Authentication and Identification (BAID) system. BAID consists of an Android OS application and biometric collection hardware leveraging existing biometric identification techniques to gate access to existing Army EHR databases. The BAID system will allow healthcare professionals to use a simple biometric scan to gain HIPAA-compliant access to medical records and to uniquely identify unknown patients using biometric data. In Phase I, ChromoLogic developed a functional prototype of the BAID system. In Phase II, CL will refine and optimize the BAID system, including miniaturizing and ruggedizing the biometric scanning hardware, for military use.
