Creating Diverse Face and Fingerprint Datasets for Biometric AI

Machine learning datasets Biometric AI

Biometric recognition technologies are transforming identity verification across industries—unlocking phones, boarding flights, authorizing payments, and even enabling healthcare access. But while AI models power these solutions, their effectiveness depends entirely on the data they are trained on.

At Dserve AI, we’re committed to helping companies build safer, smarter biometric systems by delivering diverse, accurate, and high-performance face and fingerprint datasets tailored to real-world challenges.

The Need for Inclusive, Balanced Biometric Data

Many companies face unexpected roadblocks in production simply because their biometric models weren’t trained on representative data. For example, facial recognition systems have shown higher error rates among darker-skinned individuals or those with non-Western facial structures—often due to underrepresentation in training data.

At Dserve AI, we actively combat this by:

  • Recruiting participants across ethnicities, ages, and genders

  • Including people with varying skin tones, facial shapes, and textures

  • Capturing fingerprints across multiple geographic regions and climates

  • Ensuring balance in data volume from underrepresented populations

Inclusion isn’t a feature—it’s a foundation. That’s how we build AI systems that work fairly for everyone.

Data for Global Use Cases

Our clients span the globe—from fintech startups in Africa building mobile KYC apps, to smart city projects in Europe integrating facial authentication for public transit.

We understand that regional compliance, hardware constraints, and cultural sensitivity all play a role in how biometric data should be sourced and used. That’s why we offer:

  • Localized data collection to match regional demographics

  • Regulatory compliance support (GDPR, PDPA, IT Act, etc.)

  • Language and dialect tagging for voice and face-video data

  • On-demand annotations such as religious/cultural identifiers (e.g., head coverings, beards)

Whether you’re deploying a voice-enabled app in Southeast Asia or a face unlock feature in Latin America, we tailor datasets to your context and goals.

Realism in Data Collection: Going Beyond Studio Settings

Training data that looks perfect under ideal studio lighting often fails in the real world. That’s why we recreate natural user scenarios:

  • Users in motion, blinking, or turning their heads

  • Environmental occlusions (hair, scarves, glasses, dirt, partial face)

  • Inconsistent lighting and varying distances from the camera

  • Fingerprints captured on smudged, scratched, or old sensors

These realistic data points help your model perform where it matters most—in daily, unscripted user interactions.

Privacy Isn’t Optional—It’s Built In

Biometric data is highly sensitive. Mishandling it can lead to legal penalties, brand damage, and loss of trust. We take a “Privacy by Design” approach:

  • Every subject signs clear, revocable consent documents

  • Data is de-identified and encrypted at every stage

  • No data is shared or resold without permission

  • All storage is secured with multi-layer access controls and encryption

For clients in regulated sectors like healthcare or finance, we also provide data residency options, ensuring datasets never leave approved geographic zones.

Continuous Dataset Updates & Expansion

AI isn’t static—and neither is the world it operates in. As face masks became common during the COVID-19 pandemic, facial recognition systems trained on older datasets started failing.

At Dserve AI, we offer ongoing dataset updates based on:

  • Changes in fashion/accessories (e.g., masks, headwear)

  • Aging of subjects over time

  • New spoofing or attack vectors

  • Additional device/sensor variations (e.g., ultrasonic vs. optical fingerprint scanners)

This approach ensures your biometric model stays resilient and up-to-date, even as conditions evolve.

Use Cases We Power

Here are just a few ways clients are using our biometric datasets:

  • Face Unlock for Mobile Devices: Clean + occluded face data for real-world unlock scenarios

  • Workforce Attendance Systems: Diverse fingerprint data for multiple device types

  • Digital KYC & Customer Onboarding: Combined face + ID matching with liveness detection

  • Airport & Border Control Systems: High-security biometric authentication with spoof prevention

  • Healthcare Access Platforms: Fingerprint verification with privacy-first design
