The Mobile ID device should be viewed in the context of a portable biometric acquisition station ¿ one that is not intended to be stationary and hardwired to a much larger system used for comparing or matching biometric samples. This is in contrast to traditional booking stations and other biometric enrollment stations incorp. physically secured full‐sized live‐scan fingerprint readers, other biometric capture devices, or photo capture stations with setups adhering to distance, lighting, and other photo capture standards. Mobile ID devices allows one to collect biometric data in remote locations. Here is a community-developed series of guidelines that will provide the required levels of interoperability for various operational scenarios. Illustrations.
