RT Conference Proceedings T1 Environmental Testing Methodology in Biometrics A1 Fernández Saavedra, Belén A1 Sanchez-Reillo, Raul A1 Alonso Moreno, Raúl A1 Miguel Hurtado, Óscar AB Recently, biometrics is used in many securitysystems and these systems can be located in different environments. As many experts claim and previous works have demonstrated, environmental conditions influence biometricperformance. Nevertheless, there is not a specific methodology for testing this influence at the moment. Due to it is essential to carry out this kind of evaluations, a new ISO standard was proposed for regularizing them. Such standard was accepted and it has to be specified now. AB In this work, authors have analyzed the first proposal of this project and other standards about environmental testing.According to this new ISO proposal and current ISO standards and considering aspects of these related standards focused inbiometric evaluations, a detailed methodology has been defined. This methodology consists of two parts: on the onehand, the definition of the environmental factors to analyse, including how to generate, control and measure them, and onthe other hand, the specification about how to perform the biometric evaluation.
