PRNewswire: EyeLock LLC announces that the USPTO has issued
Patent 9,646,217 on a single camera to acquire iris biometrics as well as a face image by providing suitable illumination adjustments between the two acquisitions:
- It uses a single image sensor to acquire a face image and an iris image suitable for iris recognition;
- determines the distance of the subject from the image sensor, so that suitable illumination levels can be provided even when the two types of images are being captured in quick succession;
- links the face image to the iris image, which allows the face image to be used for liveness confirmation of the iris biometrics; and
- allows the acquisition of the face image to serve as biometric deterrence and the face image to be optionally stored for future dispute resolution.
The EyeLock reference designs are said to have working distances of up to 60 cm with a false accept rate of 1 in 1.5 million for single eye authentication and a false reject rate of less than 1%.
