  • Patent number: 10964097
    Abstract: A system and method for capturing an image of a physical space and designing a multidimensional artificial depiction of design option modifications thereto, using a mobile device or computer, using AR. The system includes CR software programs to identify and segment surfaces and objects in the physical and multidimensional artificial spaces; to determine lighting in the spaces, and to map locations into 3D depictions. Also included is a user interface to provide user input and computer feedback, a user control component to change at least two features within the depiction thus generating an overlay of the multidimensional artificial space as to the physical space.

  • Publication number: 20210082081
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems for image security in computer vision applications are described. A shared secret is stored at an image sensor module and a trusted element. The shared secret includes a device-specific secret value and a definition of a plurality of pixel locations. An image is received at the image sensor module, which generates a watermark based on the secret value and applies the watermark to the image, based on the pixel locations, to create a watermarked image. The watermarked image is received at the trusted element, which validates the watermarked image based on the watermark.

  • Patent number: 10108871
    Abstract: Spoof-detection and liveness analysis is performed using a software-based solution on a user device, such as a smartphone having a camera, audio output component (e.g., earpiece), and audio input component (e.g., microphone). One or more audio signals are emitted from the audio output component of the user device, reflect off a target, and are received back at the audio input component of the device. Based on the reflections, a determination is made as to whether the target is comprised of a three-dimensional face-like structure and/or face-like tissue. Using at least this determination, a finding is made as to whether the target is likely to be spoofed, rather than a legitimate, live person.

  • Patent number: 9971920
    Abstract: This specification describes technologies relating to biometric authentication based on images of the eye. In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include obtaining images of a subject including a view of an eye. The methods may further include determining a behavioral metric based on detected movement of the eye as the eye appears in a plurality of the images, determining a spatial metric based on a distance from a sensor to a landmark that appears in a plurality of the images each having a different respective focus distance, and determining a reflectance metric based on detected changes in surface glare or specular reflection patterns on a surface of the eye. The methods may further include determining a score based on the behavioral, spatial, and reflectance metrics and rejecting or accepting the one or more images based on the score.
