Lyndon Smith (academic)

Smith was born in Stroud, Gloucestershire on 26 December 1964 to Lionel Alfred and Dorothy Smith. He received a BSc from the University of Wales in 1986, an MSc from Cranfield University in 1988, and a PhD from the University of the West of England in 1997.[2] He completed a secondment at the Pennsylvania State University which lasted for a year.[3]

Smith works at the University of the West of England in Bristol.

He has developed a technique for the simulation of the packing densities of particles with irregular morphologies.[4]

He helped develop 3D face recognition technology which he said was "on the verge of becoming really big" in 2017.[5][6]

Smith has been involved in plans to replace turnstiles on the London Underground with a facial recognition system.[7] He said that facial recognition technology under development could replace train tickets, and have applications in stores, train stations and banks.[8]
