The SOCCER project (System for Onboarding via Certified Video Conferencing) involves the development of a system that enables secure and verifiable remote identity verification through video. To achieve this, the project develops and integrates a set of complementary technologies that will allow the complete identity verification process to be carried out: (a) A secure and certified video conferencing system that allows communication to be established from virtually any location or user device. (b) A system for capturing, extracting information, and verifying the authenticity of identity documents, either using the mechanisms provided by the document itself (e.g., electronic ID card) or through web cameras or mobile devices. (c) A facial biometric recognition system to verify the users identity against the presented identity document. (d) A secure and verifiable validation system of the verification process by the user. As part of the technologies involved in SOCCER, Gradiant will participate in using facial biometrics as a mechanism to verify user identity and in the development of a user validation system for the onboarding process.
