The 19th China Biometric Recognition Conference (CCBR 2025) was successfully held in Nanchang. Co-sponsored by the China Society of Image and Graphics (CSIG), the Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence (CAAI), and the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, the conference was co-organized by Nanchang Hangkong University and Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics, with strong support from the Biometric Recognition Professional Committee (Preparatory) of CSIG, the Youth Working Committee, the Visual Big Data Professional Committee, the IEEE Beijing Section Biometrics Council Chapter, the Nanchang Member Activity Center of CSIG, and the Jiangxi Public Security Science and Technology Innovation Federation. More than 400 teachers, students, and enterprise experts from over 120 well-known universities, research institutes, and enterprises at home and abroad attended the conference, engaging in theoretical and applied research on biometric recognition.

As one of the "new infrastructures" in the digital economy era, biometric recognition has quietly penetrated into financial payments, urban security, smart classrooms, and even daily consumer electronics, becoming a key pivot to drive industrial digitalization and intelligent upgrading. Taking this opportunity, the "Biometric Recognition Industry Application Forum" gathered top forces from industry, academia, and research, focusing on cutting-edge technologies, implementation scenarios, standard formulation, and collaborative innovation, jointly outlining the growth curve and value blueprint of the industry.

Professor Li Huibin, Chief Scientist of Xitu Light, Director of the Biometric Recognition Center of the National Biosecurity Evidence Base, and Professor of the School of Mathematics and Statistics at Xi'an Jiaotong University; Professor Zhong Dexing, Senior Member of the China Computer Federation and CSIG, and Professor of the School of Automation at Xi'an Jiaotong University, were invited to attend the biometric recognition conference as forum organizers. Hou Zongqing, Deputy General Manager of Xitu Light and Off-campus Master's Supervisor at Xi'an Jiaotong University, was invited to attend the conference and delivered a special report titled "In-depth Integration of Industry, Academia, Research and Application: Innovation and Global Market Landing of Xitu Light's 3D Biometric Technology", providing valuable references for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.

Mr. Hou's report took Xitu Light as a typical case, in-depth analysis of its innovative path of in-depth integration of "industry, academia, research and application" relying on the national-level scientific research platform of Xi'an Jiaotong University, focusing on 3D vision and biometric recognition technology, transforming cutting-edge academic research achievements into high-precision, high-security, and customizable intelligent products, and successfully applying them to smart security, financial payments, smart campuses and other vertical industries, especially breaking through the strict requirements of the international market for privacy and fairness, achieving remarkable breakthroughs in the global market.

The successful holding of this conference has not only built an efficient dialogue and cooperation bridge between academia and industry in the field of biometric recognition, but also fully demonstrated China's systematic innovation progress from theoretical breakthroughs to technological applications in this frontier direction. Through special reports, technical exhibitions, and industry-university-research discussions, the conference highlighted the vigorous vitality of interdisciplinary integration such as visual algorithms, artificial intelligence, big data, and IoT perception technology, effectively promoting knowledge sharing, resource docking, and cross-border cooperation, and contributing to the high-quality development of the biometric recognition industry.
