In 1997, he founded Tiancheng Shengye. In 2016, he established the Eye Technology Group. Zhou Jun has been deeply involved in artificial intelligence and biometrics for more than 20 years. Entrepreneurship is a life of nine, no matter which industry, it is difficult to escape this spell. In the field of biometrics, the eye-seeking technology touches the river and explores the road.

"The world's understanding of the AI ​​industry is still very vague, the industry is still very weak, just like the small sprouts just came out. Look for people who appreciate you, appreciate the people in the AI ​​industry, believe that this thing can bring value to people." Zhou Jun said that he took a deep breath and slowly spit it out.

Zhou Jun had rarely received media interviews. It belongs to the BOSS of the traditional enterprise transformation category that is common to the author: it has strong practical ability, and the number of roads that pure Internet companies are good at playing brands is different.

In 1997, he founded Tiancheng Shengye. In 2016, he established the Eye Technology Group. Zhou Jun has been deeply involved in artificial intelligence and biometrics for more than 20 years. Eye Technology is a relatively rare company in the field of fingerprints, face and iris, providing end-to-end multi-modal biometric solutions. The company's application areas that focus on and have practical cases include finance, security, anti-terrorism, smart campus and Smart communities, etc., where banking is a core business, accounting for 50% of the total business, and the market share of banking channels is also nearly 60%.

On the team side, there are more than 300 existing staff in Eye Technology, most of whom are R&D personnel. There are more than 100 people in Beijing, and there are more than 200 R&D centers and subsidiaries in Xiong'an, Shenzhen, Jinan, Changchun, Shenyang and Zhengzhou. In October 2017, Eye Technology completed a round of financing of 100 million yuan, Zhou Jun said that the current A + round is starting, mainly considering strategic investment.

In the field of biometrics for more than 20 years, I have survived on countless entrepreneurial “corpses”. Eye Technology is a biometric company with 20 years of accumulation and won the second prize of the National Technology Invention Award. It is also the only company in the industry to receive this award. After 20 years of hard work, behind the unremitting struggle of Zhou Jun and the team.

After graduating from university in 1993, Zhou Jun was assigned to work at the Shandong Branch of the People's Bank of China. Until now, the central bank is a work unit envied by many people, but he belongs to the kind of person who “has to be able to do what he likes by nature”.

"By nature, I like to do what I like to do, to be a customer I like, and I don't like it. I don't want to do it. I want to find some high-quality customers, don't ink, don't ink, hit it, don't hit it, leave, choose the customer. Zhou Jun said.

Zhou Jun began planning for entrepreneurship in early 1995. The company was founded in 1997. In 1998, it began to develop fingerprint recognition technology and tried to apply it to the financial field. At that time, fingerprints were still a very new technology. For bank customers who were very cautious, it was not easy to convince them to pay.

From the beginning of research and development to the real finding of customers and projects, Zhou Jun has experienced more than five years of exploration. He visited dozens of banks and finally found a bank willing to try fingerprint identification technology. This customer ran a total of 12 times. "Let a customer eat the first crab. As an entrepreneur, you must be AII IN. Don't think about making money at first. When you give your heart and life to him, he will help you. At that time, the company is almost exhausted. Zhou Jun recalled that his eyes showed a trace of blood red.

After fingerprint recognition succeeded, Zhou Jun began to try face recognition in 2002. He developed successfully in 2005, but at that time there was not so much data, server computing power and deep learning technology have not yet broken through. Face algorithm is global. The effect is not good.

However, Zhou Jun continued to maintain strong sensitivity to industry trends and business opportunities. In 2005, he began to work on iris again, and it took more than two years to finally develop. After 2011, with the maturity of GPU and deep learning technology, the face recognition algorithm of Eye Technology has been rapidly improved, and in 2016, only two 30-layer neural networks have achieved an accuracy of 99.71% in the IFW evaluation.

Entrepreneurship is a life of nine, no matter which industry, it is difficult to escape this spell. In the field of biometrics, eye technology is also stepping on the path of many "Martyrs" and then bravely moving forward.

Zhou Jun summed up the reasons for many people's entrepreneurial failures: "From technology to products is the reason why many entrepreneurs are behind the scenes. The technology is developed, and its performance indicators are achieved in the simulation environment. But the products must be combined with the scene and combined with the user experience. Just like reading "Dream of Red Mansions", but to interpret Jia Baoyu, this is a very large distance."

"Each algorithm comes from commercialization, a company for at least five years, even now. Converting to productivity is at least five years, and every AI technology has not been developed for five years!"

In the past 20 years, Zhou Jun has ushered in many entrepreneurial “classmates”. Some because they walked too fast, fell into the black hole, and some went too tired, "married" to others, more "OVER".

"We pick up what they didn't do, and then continue to do it. In an area that has not been awakened, I will do it." Zhou Jun described his entrepreneurial journey.

In the field of biometrics for more than 20 years, Zhou Jun has deep feelings about this industry. He shares the secret of eye technology and can make a living metaphor:

Technology is like a seed. Find the soil, find a moist, good soil, let it root, sprout, grow up. Seeds (like bamboo) grow very fast, a few dozen meters in a few weeks, but many people have not seen the seeds have been in the ground for 3-4 years. At present, the distance between the technology and the bamboo that is more than ten meters high is still a long distance. Our biometric technology requires soil, atmosphere and environment.

Fingerprint recognition technology is mature, but there are some shortcomings, such as long-term hands-free people will worry about fingerprint recognition, face recognition is friendly and convenient, but in the actual application is affected by the environment, the recognition rate of more than 99% in the laboratory environment, It is difficult to achieve in practical applications, and the advantage of iris recognition is the highest accuracy.

According to Fujitsu data, the false recognition of iris recognition may be 1/1500000 or even lower, while the misidentification of Apple TouchID may be 1/50000, and the accuracy of iris recognition is up to 30 times that of the current fingerprint scheme. Iris recognition is a non-contact identification, which is very convenient and efficient.

According to the statistics of iris recognition founder Daugman, the iris can extract 173 independent feature codes (also called degrees of freedom), that is, the probability that two irises are identical is one of the 173th power of 2; while the independent features of other biometric technologies are only 13-60. Relative to the information of faces, fingerprints, etc., the iris information is more abundant, including many detailed features of interlaced spots, filaments, crowns, stripes, crypts and the like.

"There are a 'landscape' in the eyes of people, there are 'flowers', 'grass', 'trees' and even 'animals'. The eyes are the windows of people, and they can express your mood. The information inside has passed through humans for many years. The evolution of the information is the most abundant." Zhou Jun said, "The iris is the most stable, because the eyes are naturally protected, and the inside is like the ocean."

Moreover, after the iris is formed in the fetal development stage, it will remain unchanged throughout the life course. These characteristics determine the uniqueness of the iris characteristics and also determine the uniqueness of the identity.

In the application of iris technology, Zhou Jun first began to cut into the overseas market. For example, people in the Middle East could not show their faces, and face recognition would not be appropriate, but the iris could. According to Zhou Jun, Eye Technology cut into the Indian market in 2013. Its iris technology has covered 1 billion people and is one of the participants in the Indian iris technology standard.

It is worth mentioning that Eye Technology is also the only biometric company introduced in Xiong'an New District. “The government values ​​our understanding of standards. We have been 'mixing' abroad for many years, mainly introducing this set of standards. More than 30 biometrics in China are led and participated in the formulation.” Zhou Jun said, “eye technology” He is also a member of the American Biometric Industry Association, a member of the European Biometric Industry Association, and a member of the African Biometric Industry Association."

The advantages of iris recognition technology are obvious, but there are difficulties in landing to the industry. "In the past ten years, Zhou Jun tried to do the hero (hero) in the field of iris recognition, awakened the people, and found that his strength was too small, and almost killed himself." Zhou Jun recalled. Now the people are gradually awakened, but they are still in a stage of “satisfaction”, and the industry still needs time to wait.

Secondly, the basic resources and environment of the application of iris recognition technology are insufficient. For example, there are no sensors for iris recognition in the market. Many of them are used in some industrial fields, and are used for iris recognition. There is no product specially designed for iris recognition.

Whether it is a chip, a sensor or a shape, the iris recognition will always "wear other people's clothes" to run forward. But it has formed an industry, it should wear its own clothes, relatively speaking to show you a more beautiful attitude. But it still takes time.

"Iris recognition is still relatively weak, but the power is very strong, and the explosive power is huge. The peers and customers should carry out a little tolerance on it. This kind of tolerance is not 'kick', '骂' it, more care, give it opportunities and applause. This requires the society and peers to care together," Zhou Jun said.

Biometric technology has been in full swing in the past two years. Common biometric technologies include: iris recognition, face recognition, fingerprint recognition, voiceprint recognition, vein recognition, and gait recognition.

According to the US consulting firm Transparency Market Research, the global biometrics market will grow from $11.24 billion in 2015 to $23.3 billion in 2020, with a compound annual growth rate of 15.7%. The biometrics market is experiencing rapid growth.

Zhou Jun believes that multimodality is an inevitable trend in biometric identification, and technologies such as face, iris and fingerprint are combined. People are born with a lot of "sensors" - ears, nose, eyes, hands, and other senses. The ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is to do everything like people, and these sensors are needed.

For example, the fusion of face and fingerprint, face recognition accuracy is low, but fingerprints sometimes have poor quality, so you can combine face decision weights and fingerprint decision weights. It can improve the accuracy and expand the application scenario.

Speaking of the development trend of AI in 2018, Zhou Jun believes that AI is a bit of a feeling of rain, but it also takes more time for entrepreneurs to truly build their products. AI entrepreneurship is different from Internet entrepreneurship. The Internet is a winner-take-all, rapid monopoly, and AI is a lot of survival opportunities for the entire industry, generating a large number of AI companies from different dimensions and levels. AI will be ten times or even 100 times the market space of the Internet.

"The Internet is a small dish compared to AI. This is a big dish. It is a prelude, this is a positive play." Zhou Jun said.
