PASSIVE STEREO SENSING FOR 3D FACIAL SHAPE BIOMETRICS

摘要

A face recognition device which operates in sunlit conditions such as in sunlight, or in indirect sunlight. The device operates without projection of light or other illumination to the face. Stereo information indicative of the face shape is obtained, and used to construct a 3D model. That model is compared to other models of known faces, and used to verify identity based on the comparison.
