I feel it should be very feasible as with a good vectorization tool you can
actually get a good output as you see here:
https://sebbe.eu/bimi/face.svg
And to gurantee genuineness and facilitate fully automated validation (which
drives down the prices of the certificates) the passport picture can be
extracted from a MTRD or a "national ID card" ('passport in credit card
format') and then if a good normalization algoritm and vectorization algorim is
applied to convert the passport picture to the SVG, then the CA can be sure
that the picture is correct without having to visually compare the face
pictures with each other.
Which makes fully automated validation a possibility with a mobile app, NFC and
a MRTD.
The algoritm has to however, be able to automatically add optimizations to the
color profile to ensure the resultant SVG is below 32 kB.

Ämne: Re: [mailop] VMC/BIMI - Getting a personal VMC certificate?
And separately, I'll put this on the wish list of stuff that I'll
bring up in discussions with others in the BIMI Group. I love the idea
of a "personal mark certificate," though I don't know how feasible it
is. I'm in the same boat as you, in that I'm not really a company, but
I'd love to implement BIMI as broadly as possible.
Cheers,
Al Iverson
