Why does biometrics become a typical application in smart cities?

Since the concept of smart city was put forward, construction booms have been set up everywhere. What is the value of a smart city? What are the challenges of building a smart city? Recently, the 2015 International Smart City Construction and Business Application Chongqing Forum hosted by the Chongqing Municipal Science and Technology Commission and the Municipal Foreign Affairs Bureau was held at the Chongqing Science and Technology Research Institute. More than 100 experts and scholars from home and abroad gathered around smart cities and cloud computing. Data, Internet+, public safety, energy conservation and environmental protection and other hot issues were exchanged and discussed, aiming to further promote the innovative development of urban construction in Chongqing.

Smart city is the breakthrough to cope with urbanization challenges

“Smart city is the breakthrough to cope with the challenges of urbanization.” Tan Gangqiang, executive deputy secretary-general of Chongqing Invention Association, said that we are already in the era of big data, and 90% of all information in the world has been generated in the past two years. The "wisdom" of a smart city comes from big data. Without big data, a smart city is an empty shelf. With the acceleration of China's urbanization construction, the construction of smart cities based on big data applications will determine the quality of urbanization in the future.

Smart cities have many values ​​such as economic, social and administrative services. According to statistics, a city with a population of one million develops a smart city. When its actual application level reaches 75%, the city's GDP can be increased by 3.5 times under other conditions. This means that smart cities can promote economic growth. In addition, smart cities will also be an effective means of solving "urban diseases" such as population growth, traffic congestion, resource shortages, and urban pollution.

In his view, the construction of a smart city should include two aspects, one is to build a government public data platform, and the other is to provide a public service platform for the people. "Only by following this core framework, we can truly realize the landing of smart cities."

Decentralized information construction will lead to "information islands"

“Although the wave of smart cities is sweeping the whole world, it is undeniable that smart city construction also faces many challenges.” Xiang Guochun, deputy director of the business department of NEC (Chongqing) Information Systems Co., Ltd., admits that in some cities in China, due to various The informatization construction of departments and industries is scattered. It is impossible to better connect informationized data systems and exert comprehensive effects, which will lead to the emergence of many “information islands”.

At the same time, due to the lack of a complete and unified standard system for urban informatization, the informatization standards formulated by different departments and organizations are not coordinated, and information exchange cannot be achieved with each other.

In addition, he believes that the lack of an effective investment and operation model, emphasis on construction but neglect of utilization and operation is also one of the challenges facing smart city construction.

It is understood that Liangjiang New District, Yuzhong District and Nan'an District are all pilot cities (districts and counties) approved by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and attach great importance to the construction of smart cities. For example, Liangjiang New District plans to invest 1.125 billion yuan in smart city construction this year for the construction of network infrastructure and data infrastructure in smart cities, and will initially build public information platforms and smart construction management systems.

Biometric technology is one of the typical applications of smart cities in the future

When you walk into a hotel and take a photo in front of the camera, the face recognition system can quickly capture your facial features and compare it with the hotel back-office client system. It only takes 1 second to identify if you are For the hotel's VIP customers, and then provide you with accurate customer service.

“Biometric technology is one of the typical applications of smart cities in the future.” Iwami Sato, a senior expert in the Public Sector Department of NEC, introduced smart cities through biometrics, including the use of faces, fingerprints, veins, etc. Solve the problem of identification. In this regard, they have more than 40 years of research and development history, and promote related technologies to the world.

She said that biometric technology has been widely used in Europe and the United States. NEC has also introduced and implemented more than 500 biometric systems in more than 40 countries around the world.

Iwasa Yuka said that with the popularity of biometrics, immigration and access control through biometrics, hospital registration, etc., will gradually make people's lives more "smart."
