Very often we hear the questions: What is the relation between Biometrics and Kansei Engineering? Which affects the other? This lecture will introduce a discussion on the social sides of biometrics - security, convenience, user friendliness, real world biometrics technologies. Some more applications of biometrics will be introduced like its use in kindergartens, primary and high schools, library and food service. Smart environment will be discussed on the basis of ambient intelligence with the attention paid to the role of biometrics in that. The integration of biometrics with other systems and products like car computers and the car computer-driver relations will be the starting point of the impact of Kansei Engineering on Biometrics and the possibility of their interaction.
