Abstract: An image processing method and an image processing system for eye-gaze correction are provided. The method is applicable to an image processing system having a screen and an image capturing device and includes the following steps. A user's face in front of the screen is captured by the image capturing device to generate a facial image. A head offset and an eye-gaze position of the user with respect to the screen are obtained based on the facial image so as to accordingly determine whether to correct the facial image. If yes, the facial image is corrected based on the eye-gaze position and a preset codebook to generate a corrected facial image, where the preset codebook records correction information of multiple preset eye-gaze positions.

Abstract: An identification method and an apparatus utilizing the method are disclosed. The disclosed method comprises capturing a first examining image at a first direction, performing a face detection process on the first examining image to identify a first face image in the first examining image, detecting a number of straight lines which are within a detecting image block of the first examining image but outside the first face image, comparing the number of straight lines with a quantity threshold to obtain a first judgment value, and judging if the first face image pass an examination at least according to the first judgment value.

Abstract: A security system with power saving feature includes an electromagnetic lock and a sensing module. The electromagnetic lock is for receiving a limited supply of an electric power supplied by a power supply circuit before a full supply of the electric power is delivered to the electromagnetic lock. The sensing module may cause the full supply of the electric power upon sensing a specific action signal caused by an environment change. Therefore, the electromagnetic lock may operate in a lock state with only the limited supply of the electric power and still operate in the same lock state even after the generation of the triggering signal. Thus, the time during which the electromagnetic lock operates with the full supply of the electric power is minimized, limiting the total power consumption accordingly.

Abstract: A multi-region monitoring system comprises: an image-capturing module having a lens assembly; and a mirror assembly having at least two mirrors, wherein the mirrors face the lens assembly. By adjusting the rotation angle of the mirrors, objects of several specific regions can be reflected in the mirrors, and the image-capturing module captures a digital image of the mirrors and the objects reflected therein. Due to the capturing range of the image-capturing module including the mirrors only, the captured digital image is able to have high resolution.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a method for setting an image monitoring area and an apparatus thereof, comprising setting a trigger parameter and a stop parameter in an image processing software, calculating and analyzing a series of continuous image frames taken in a predetermined space by an image fetching unit by running the image processing software, determining whether the trigger parameter is included in a target image in the image frames, responsive to the determination being affirmative, automatically calculating, analyzing, and recording a trace of the target image moving in the image frames, stopping the recording of the trace when the stop parameter is detected in the target image, and setting an area defined by the trace of the target image as an image monitoring area to be monitored.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a human image recognition system capable of determining a next movement of a person approaching a particular region of space, which comprises a determination unit adapted to determine whether there is a moving object in continuous images taken by an image taking unit by analyzing the continuous images. If yes, the determination unit compares the moving object with contours of at least one admissible person stored in a memory so as to determine whether the moving object is a person recognized or is about to enter into or leave from a door of a building by analyzing the person's moving direction and changed positions, and then determine whether the person should be allowed to pass through or not.
