What in your opinion are some of the key technology trends in the biometrics industry? What is OmniPerception doing in this regard?

What do you think are the greatest challenges in the current U.K. biometrics market? How does OMNIPERCEPTION address them?
The two main challenges in the U.K. biometrics market as a whole go hand in hand and are as follows:
