Center of Excellence

                                                     

Contracted by the U.S. Department of Justice, IBG established and operates the Sensors, Surveillance, and Biometric Technologies Center of Excellence to support the Justice's law enforcement and corrections biometrics and surveillance technology projects, including concealed weapons detection, through-the-wall surveillance, novel sensors, and biometric technologies. The Center provides structured, actionable results and recommendations to law enforcement agencies, corrections organizations, courts, and crime laboratories nationwide, generating accountable progress towards practitioner needs.

 

The Center supports19,000+ law enforcement agencies nationwide to identify technology needs, assess and monitor NIJ R&D programs, test and evaluate technologies, implement and oversee pilot and demo programs in support of new technology adoption, develop technology guidelines, and provide specialized technology assistance and support.

 

The Center mission includes:

  • Hosting and supporting Sensors and Surveillance and Biometrics Technical Working Groups (TWG), and Aviation focus groups

  • Supporting NIJ in developing R&D program objectives; and assessing ongoing R&D projects

  • Evaluating R&D deliverables – both through in-house testing and operational evaluations in the field

  • Working with grantees to facilitate transfer of technology to practitioners and the commercial market
