Abstract: A dual purpose iris and color camera system is described provides good iris and color image capture in either IR or visible bands depending upon which type of image is being captured at that moment. For iris imaging the iris camera is capable of imaging in the 700 to 900 nm wavelength range where the iris structure becomes visible. The iris camera is able to perform iris imaging outside with full sunlight. The iris camera requires only a low level of cooperation from the user, in that they must be within a range of distances away from the iris camera, must hold relatively still for a short period of time, and must face towards the camera. The iris capture process is fully automated once activated.

Abstract: A mobile device is able to capture a plurality of different biometric identifiers of a subject. The mobile device displays a user interface on a screen of the device to guide the user in the capture of valid biometric identifiers. The user interface includes several different displays configured to guide users through the capture process to improve the chance that the user will capture valid biometric identifiers. The user interface includes displays for iris image capture, face image capture, voice capture, and fingerprint capture. The displays streamline the capture process, decreasing the overall knowledge and time required of the user to capture valid biometric identifiers. This also decreases the risk to the user in hostile environments. The device also processes the captured biometric identifiers to determine if they are valid, and updates the display of the user interface accordingly.

Abstract: An enclosure works in conjunction with a mobile device to capture biometric identifiers. The mobile device has a screen on a first side and a camera on a second side opposite the first side. The enclosure at least partially covers the mobile device on the first and second sides. The enclosure includes a fingerprint subsystem configured to capture fingerprints with sufficient resolution for biometric identification. The fingerprint subsystem is located on a portion of the enclosure covering the second side of the mobile device. The enclosure includes an iris imaging subsystem configured to capture iris images with sufficient resolution for biometric identification. The iris imaging subsystem includes an iris imaging aperture facing outward from the portion of the enclosure covering the second side of the mobile device. The enclosure includes an electronic data interface configured to communicatively couple the fingerprint and iris imaging subsystems to the mobile device.
