The Switzerland-based Idiap Research Institute has revealed that it will be part of an ambitious, wide-ranging EU project (TeSLA) to authenticate student identity online using biometrics.The TeSLA project will involve some 14,000 students from Europe as well as around 80 professionals and 18 months of largescale pilot tests.Led by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC), the project has a length of three years and a budget of 7 million euros (US$7.8 million).Once it has been developed, a standard free version of the online assessment system will be offered to education institutions and there will be a professional and commercial version for the international market.The system will allow the student to be identified and authorship to be authenticated thanks to state-of-the-art technology such as facial recognition, voice recognition, typing patterns or anti-plagiarism, among other methods.
