Real‑time Remote Biometric Identification (RBI)

Biometric identification of persons in public spaces in real time.

Definition

RBI refers to AI systems that perform remote, live identification of persons in publicly accessible spaces by matching captured biometric data against biometric reference datasets; the Notice treats such uses as high‑risk and subjects them to enhanced safeguards, including prior Magistrate authorisation and mandatory notification to the IDPC (with operational confidentiality limits).
