Polarized images for security

摘要

One embodiment may take the form of a method for providing security for access to a goal including storing a first image and receiving a second image comprising polarized data. The method also includes comparing the first image with the second image to determine if the first image and the second image are substantially the same. In the event the first and second images are not substantially the same, the method includes denying access to the goal. In the event the first and second images are substantially the same, the method includes determining, utilizing the polarized information, if the second image is of a three-dimensional object. Further, in the event the second image is not of a three-dimensional object, the method includes denying access to the goal and, in the event the second image is of a three-dimensional object, permitting access to the goal.

主权项

1. A method for providing facial recognition security, comprising receiving a first image of an individual captured by a polarizing image capture device;
comparing facial metrics in the first image to facial metrics in a second image of the individual to determine if the first and second images are of the same individual; if the first and second images are of the same individual, determining if the first image is of a three-dimensional object based on polarized data in the image; if the first image is of a three-dimensional object, comparing the first image with one or more other images of the individual captured by the polarizing image capture device to determine if a micro-movement indicative of a human occurred between the first image and at least one of the one or more other images; and if a micro-movement indicative of a human occurred between the first and at least one of the one or more other images, providing a positive result to the individual.
