Iris Recognition Comes to the Cabin: Low-Resolution Breakthroughs and Multimodal Fusion

Iris recognition has long been one of the most accurate ways to confirm who a person is. Yet for decades, it stayed locked inside smartphones, border-control gates, and dedicated access terminals.
Ahead of his session at InCabin Europe, Gabriel Hine, an Iris Authentication Technology Owner at Smart Eye explains how his team moved iris recognition out of those controlled settings and into the vehicle cabin, why combining iris with face recognition beats either one alone, and what this unlocks for the car once identity can be established from cameras the vehicle already carries.
