SMARTY FLOW

 

Project ID: 17283

Operation Code: LISBOA-01-0247-FEDER-017283

Lisbon Regional Operational Programme

Project Approval Date: 03/04/2018

Project Designation: Smarty Flow

Beneficiary: Vision-Box, SA

Start date:01/02/2016 • End Date: 31/12/2019

Eligible total cost:  9.593.466,88€

European Union contribution 3.821.325,96€

 

Smarty Flow aims to create a platform for the use of virtual identity documents to expedite the process of identifying citizens at airports, ports and in the use of additional services that imply the identification of the consumer, such as hotels, car rental, travel agencies, entertainment, among others. The user may use their biometrics (face, fingerprint or iris) as proof of identity to be authenticated, via agile self-service processes that do not require the citizen to produce any physical documents.

The new identification experience is based on the use of mobile phones, such as cell phones, tablets, and others, containing the digital identity document securely virtualized and ready for any interactions.

The project has a strategic relevance for the national economy, further reinforcing the image of the country as a recognized innovation stage. Additionally, the implementation of the project is very relevant to secure our borders while it is also expected that it has a positive effect on tourism, a strategic sector of the country.

Smart-Trust is a highly innovative Horizon 2020 (SME instrument Phase 2) project for border control, which introduces a new technological enabler for Mobile ID and increases the reliability and trust levels of identity verification at European borders, strongly improving the security of member states. In a world where mobile is king, Vision-Box Mobile ID™ technology goes one step further and transforms the way people identify themselves. By enabling a digital hands-free authentication through mobile devices, this first-class solution allows to have a complete paperless and contactless travel experience, where there is no need for physical passport checks, hence expediting travel and improving passenger experience, while increasing security.

Smart-Trust will be implemented by delivering an agile, highly configurable, modular and open architecture platform with the following robust, versatile and scalable core components:

– Mobile ID services and app, mobile identity enrolment and verification services
– TrustChain, a blockchain-based infra-structure to assert citizen transactions in a distributed and self-regulatory fashion
– Workflow Orchestration, a workflow management component which caters for stakeholder-driven business rules
– Analytics and Risk-Assessment, an industrial-strength real time analytics platform able to deliver professional customized monitoring dashboards as well as detecting passenger trends and anomalies.

ABC4EU

 

FP7-SEC-2012-1
Project ID: 312797

Project Designation: ABC4EU

Beneficiary: 14 Consortium Members

Start date: 01/01/2014 • End Date: 01/03/2018

ABC4EU_Logo

The aim of ABC4EU is to make border checks more flexible and user-friendly for passengers by harmonizing the functionalities of border check automation. At the moment  the  Automated Border Control System can be used by passengers with  EU  and  Schengen  ePassport.  In the future, together with complementary legislation, non-Schengen passengers will be able to use the ABC gate. The project aims to achieve this goal by a creation of a harmonization framework which includes functionalities,  biometrics,  gate design and the border check process itself. With this framework, the Project expects to achieve the following outcomes:

– Improving better passenger experience and, thus, encouraging people to use ABC gates at border crossing points,

– Facilitate more fluent travelling by shortening queuing time;
– Closely following the Smart borders Package

– Legislative Proposal, ABC4EU scope includes implementation of an Entry-Exit System and a Registered Traveler System.

In addition, RTP and EES will be specifically tested in the project to assess their feasibility and impact at EU level border management.
