Are you sure this is up to date information?
Edit: The reason I say this is because of this post: https://sh.itjust.works/post/48773975/21833637
Yes. Biometric data is a unique pattern for certain biological features. Fingerprints are an easy one, the retina is another. These are relatively simple 3D projections onto a 2D surface. The distances between pattern landmarks are recorded as the biometric data.
This is facial recognition at most. Facial recognition is flawed, as it isn't a 3D projection onto a 2D surface, it is a 3D projection estimated from a 2D image.
Without the actual distance measurements and ratios, there is no "biometric signature." It could be done, but like I said, you'd need 3D cameras, and phones are not capable of processing that.
I hear you. But this is the government, he's probably using a government device. Not a samsung or apple off the shelf.
Trust me, a Samsung or Apple off the shelf is gonna be better than anything issued to the field.
