Abstract: An iris biometric recognition module includes technology for capturing images of an iris of an eye of a person, whether the person is moving or stationary. The iris biometric recognition technology can perform an iris matching procedure for, e.g., authentication or identity purposes, by comparing a digital iris image to a reference iris image and, if the digital and reference iris images match, transition an object from a locked to an unlocked state to allow access to the object.

Abstract: An iris biometric recognition module includes technology for capturing images of an iris of an eye of a person, whether the person is moving or stationary. The iris biometric recognition technology can perform an iris matching procedure for, e.g., identity purposes by querying a database for data related to an identified person, comparing the data with a plurality of content, and, in response to a determination that the data matches at least one piece of the plurality of content, display the plurality of content specific to the person on a display device.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to a biometric analysis system including one or more illumination sources, and one or more cameras. The one or more illumination sources are configured to be actuated into an illumination condition to illuminate a subject and a deactivated condition to stop illumination of the subject. The one or more cameras are configured to capture one or more images of the subject. The one or more cameras include a lens, an image sensor, a primary shutter, and a secondary shutter. The secondary shutter can be configured to open in a synchronized manner with actuation of the one or more illumination sources into the illumination condition and close in a synchronized manner with actuation of the one or more illumination sources into the deactivated condition.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to biometric analysis systems generally including one or more illumination sources, a camera, and an analysis module. The illumination sources are configured to illuminate at least a portion of a face of a subject. The camera is configured to capture one or more images of the subject during illumination of the face of the subject. The analysis module is configured to analyze the one or more images captured by the camera to determine an indication of liveliness of the subject and prevent spoofing.

Abstract: An iris biometric recognition module includes technology for capturing images of an iris of an eye of a person, whether the person is moving or stationary, and whether the person is located near the iris image capture device or at a distance from the iris image capture device. The iris biometric recognition technology can perform an iris matching procedure for, e.g., authentication or identity verification purposes. The iris biometric recognition module can be incorporated into, for example, a door lock assembly and other access controlled devices, mechanisms, and systems.

Abstract: A method of operating a device to obtain biometric information from a subject includes the step of orienting a device relative to a sub jest such that a first portion of the device faces the subject, wherein a second FIG. 1A portion of the mobile device comprises a camera, the first and second portions being different sides of the device. The method may further includes the steps of operating an optical assembly that is movably coupled to the device, the optical assembly being configured to modify an optical pathway of at least the camera in a direction of the subject and acquiring imaging data of the subject using the camera. The method may further includes the steps of analyzing the acquired imaging data to generate biometric information corresponding to the subject and generating a report using the biometric information.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to biometric analysis systems including one or more illumination sources configured to provide dim illumination to a scene including an object and configured to provide flash illumination to the object in the scene. The biometric analysis systems include a rolling shutter camera configured to capture one or more images. The biometric analysis systems include an adaptive trigger module configured to analyze the scene to detect the object in the scene during dim illumination of the scene, determine a position in a frame of the rolling shutter camera that coincides with the detected object in the scene, and arrange a delay between a start of image writing by the rolling shutter camera and a trigger of the one or more illumination sources such that a stripe of the flash illumination coincides with the detected object in the scene.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to biometric enrollment systems including a camera and an image analysis module. The camera configured is to capture a probe image of a subject, the probe image including an iris of the subject. The image analysis module is configured to determine an iris characteristic of the iris in the probe image. The image analysis module is configured to analyze the probe image relative to a first enrollment image to determine if a match exists based on the iris characteristic. If the match exists, the image analysis module is configured to electronically store the matched probe image as an accepted image. The image analysis module is configured to select and establish the accepted image as a second enrollment image if the accepted image meets enrollment image criteria.

Abstract: An integrated circuit has an image sensor to receive at least one image comprising a plurality of pixels from a camera comprising a lens, a buffer communicatively connected to the image sensor for storing values associated with the plurality of pixels, and a comparator communicately connected to the buffer to locate and identify the iris of a subject, in which locating and identifying the iris of the subject is based on a location of each pixel in a brightest pixel set. A method for locating and identifying an iris in an image includes capturing at least one image of an illuminated subject, determining a brightness value for each of the plurality of pixels, determining a location corresponding to each pixel in a brightest pixel set, and identifying the iris in the at least one image based on the location of each pixel in the brightest pixel set.
